Sense Arena Virtual Reality Goalie Training Webinar
- Eric Comrie uses Sense Arena VR daily as part of his NHL-level training routine, beginning sessions with cognitive drills before moving to shot-based exercises.
- Comrie deliberately skips making saves on certain drills to focus entirely on reading shooters and studying shot release patterns — a study method unavailable in live practice.
- Sense Arena's video-based drills feature pro-level shooters, giving goalies realistic game-speed shot recognition reps from home.
- Box control ropes can be added to most drills as a positioning aid, helping goalies train structured crease movement alongside cognitive and reaction work.
- The 90-minute webinar includes a full FAQ sourced from real goalies and coaches, making it a practical reference for anyone evaluating VR goalie training.
IInGoal Magazine hosted a 90-minute webinar so that goalies could learn more about the new Sense Arena Virtual Reality Goalie Training system.
With our guests Eric Comrie of the New Jersey Devils and Bob Tetiva, Sense Arena Founder we walked through a number of sample training exercises to give you a feel for how the system works, what the experience is like and all the tools it puts at your fingertips at home. Eric talked about how he uses it every day in his training and how it relates to his on-ice experience telling us how impressed he was with the pro shooters in the video-based drills, his use of the cognitive drills to begin his daily training, the box control ropes you can choose to add to most drills – and how he will even do drills without trying to make saves just for the opportunity to watch the shots and read the shooters in a way he can’t during a regular NHL practice.
In addition, a number of questions were taken from the goalies and coaches who joined us so you can hear a complete FAQ about Sense Arena VR training.
