The Goalie Guild is proud to offer independent pro goalie scouting services.
As an independent pro goalie scouting service, we are proud to provide competitive, amateur, junior, and European goalies with opportunities to receive much-needed exposure. Goaltending is recognized as being the most important position in hockey, so it only makes sense that there is a website dedicated to promoting goalies and telling their stories.
Our scouting services are not only beneficial for goaltenders that strive to play at a higher level, but they provide readers, coaches, parents, scouts, and fans with information that can be difficult to find online. The position is complicated and very technical, so finding accurate and current information is not an easy process.
With that in mind, The Goalie Guild is dedicated to building and maintaining an extensive library of information and resources on goalies at all levels for their benefit. Below are just some of the ways we can help you be seen by college, junior and European coaches and team managers around the world.
REPORTS & PROFILES
The Goalie Guild takes great pride in publishing in-depth scouting reports and profiles on goaltenders from all over the world. Our public reports and profiles define and describe a goaltender’s finest traits and strengths, while breaking down their style in a way that everyone can understand. Reports include quotes from the goaltender and their goalie coach, and are written in an unbiased and accurate manner.
- Report is published on our website in the appropriate Prospects Library page
- Report is tweeted to over 11,000 followers and posted on our Facebook page
- Report makes a terrific unbiased addition to a goalie’s resume and portfolio
- Please contact us today for pricing, availability, and details on structure
- Examples: Josh Robinson, Adam Clark, Landon Peterson, and Nick Taylor
Reports and profiles are perfect additions to a goaltender’s portfolio or resume, and can be purchased for an affordable price. Private reports are also combined with additional value through the Prospects Library program.
GAMES & TOURNAMENTS
If you are the director, owner, coach, or manager of a competitive amateur or junior hockey team or tournament, The Goalie Guild can scout and profile participating goaltenders. This is a great way to add value to your event or team, while also providing coaches and parents with unbiased information on their goalies.
- Notes are taken during the game, and quotes grabbed after the game
- Reports are posted on our website in the appropriate Prospects Library
- Affordable pricing makes it even more valuable for the goalie’s parents
- Tournaments held in Minnesota get first priority on availability.
Costs and prices associated with live scouting during games and tournaments are handled on a case-by-cases basis. Contact us to request more information on these services.
LESSONS & TRYOUTS
If you are a parent or a coach, The Goalie Guild is available to attend private (or semi-private) lessons and team tryouts in order to aid in the scouting and selection process. We understand the numerous obstacles that comes with group scouting, and we provide an unbiased and accurate voice in a room full of coaches.
- Have a goaltender independently profiled during a private lesson
- Get additional scouting information on goalies during tryouts
- Have The Goalie Guild assist in the tryout selection process
- We act as an extra pair of eyes and hands on the ice for lessons

When is right time to think about scouting? Our son is 14 – Bantam, loves the game, more importantly, he loves being in the crease. We live in Virginia so it’s not really an active area for scouting, we were told most scouting activity primarily pays more attention to the colder climate areas.
Would appreciate your thoughts (advice) on when is the appropriate time think about scouting and drawing some attention.
Hey Goalie Guild,
My name is Connor Morrison and have been looking to get more recognized for a while by higher level teams. I am a 16 year old and playing High School Hockey For Charles P. Allen in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada, and was wondering if you guys could help get my name out there or give me some advice on what to do.
Thanks,
Connor
My son is 18 and a senior at our local high school here on Cape Cod. He is a very strong goalie, last nights game against Boston Latin he was 98% and the Boston Latin coaches spoke to him after the game asking him why he didn’t attend their school as they could really use a goalie like him. He gets this alot. He has been recognized in tournaments in Waterville Valley by a juniors team coach that was there from Nova Scotia. Due to politics and my sons age at the time, transferring him to PEI just couldn’t happen. He definitely draws attention by opposing teams, and other coaches when he plays, and it is well deserved. All he wants to do is pursue a hockey career, however, living on Cape Cod, at the end of the earth, hasn’t really provided much exposure. I recently lost my husband, his father, due to a life long struggle with a rare liver disease, so now I am in this venture alone to try and help my son achieve his dream. If there is any advice you can offer, it would be much appreciated.
Sincerely,
Joy Reis
