Advanced Goaltending Consultants
TAGC Director Brady Robinson and Senior Consultant Lynden Sammartino have been involved in the goaltending business for a number of years. Brady gained a wealth of knowledge working in close unison for 13 years with Ian Clark, the founder of the Goaltender Development Institute. Brady began working with the GDI as an instructor at their summer programs in 1996. He rapidly worked his way up the chain of command, becoming Ian’s full-time assistant with the title of Manager of Camp Operations from 2003-2005. After completing his University Degree in 2005, Brady became a full-time employee of GDI as both the Manager of Regional Operations, as well as the Regional Manager for GDI B.C. After working in the B.C. region for the past 5 years, Brady felt the time had come to begin his new venture running AGC, with Lynden Sammartino at his side.
AGC instructors pride themselves on challenging their students and holding them to the highest standard. Work ethic is defined as “a belief in the moral benefit and importance of work and its inherent ability to strengthen character”. At AGC we will ensure that each goaltender’s work ethic will be maximized on a consistent basis.
AGC uses a cutting edge instruction method focusing on making each goaltender’s game more efficient. At AGC we understand that each goaltender has their own unique style and we work with each goalie to help them reach their full potential. We also consider ourselves on the forefront with the latest techniques and innovation of the goaltending position.
