Joe Bertagna is again offering a variety of goalie schools in the summer of 2009, along with a general Spring Monday Night Hockey Clinic for adult women. The standard summer goalie session consists of a half-hour lecture/classroom session, followed by two hours on the ice. In addition to the traditional Monday through Friday goalie schools (including an all-female week), Joe is offering 4-day and 3-day options as well. See attached for details.
GOALIE AGE GROUPS
Senior sessions (“SR”) are designed for 12 years and older, including adults. Junior sessions (“JR”) are designed for 11 years and younger. The coach-goalie ratio is never less than 1 to 4. A “12” could be considered for the younger session upon request.

The following rinks will be used this summer: BEDFORD, MA: The Edge Sports Center; BURLINGTON, MA: Ice Palace; CONWAY, NH: Ham Arena; HAMILTON, MA: The Pingree School; HINGHAM, MA: Pilgrim Arena; MARLBORO, MA: N.E. Sports Center; PORTLAND, MAINE: Portland Ice Arena.

ALSO NOTE
This is NOT a boarding camp. Joe will provide lists of motels and hotels close to each rink upon request (as well as directions to each rink.) Each Camper receives a mesh jersey and a free gift hat. All goalies will use the Boni Goalie Trainer (puck-shooting machine) and a Lobster Tennis Ball Machine.
THE STAFF
Joe Bertagna will be present at each school. A graduate of Arlington High School and Harvard University, Joe is considered one of the premiere goalie coaches in the United States today. In addition to Joe, more than 20 other coaches will work during the summer of 2009, many drawn from the high school and college ranks, as well as from active college and professional goaltenders. The Marlboro Camp will be co-directed by Mike Geragosian and John Binkoski, two of the area's more experienced goalie coaches. Joe’s ability to attract college and professional goalies to the staff insures that the most current techniques will be part of the curriculum. Some of the other coaches who worked last year’s schools are listed below:
| Bob Bartholomew, Arlington H.S. Coach | Bob Conceison, Burlington H.S. Coach |
| Kelly Dyer-Hayes, Former Northeastern, Team USA Goalie | Dov Grumet-Morris, Europe League Goalie (Formerly Harvard) |
