Goal Setting Activity
Keep these three points in mind when you are doing this goal-setting activity for the week:
1. What specifics skills are currently weak?
2. What type of activities/exercises am I prepared to do to correct these weaknesses.
3. How often do I need to work on this weaknesses/how many repetitions will I need to do rectify this weaknesses (to obtain the best results in the shortest time frame)
Based upon recent performances (e.g., practices, workouts & games) what are some of your mental, physical, technical and tactical goals that you must work on to reach your ultimate goal, for example:
1. Mental/Process Goals (e.g., positive self-talk throughout practice, track the puck better into my body, stay at the top of my crease longer, stay on my feet for a longer period of time, look off the puck more frequently, communicate with my teammates, etc.
2. Physical Goals (e.g., riding the bike, ball drills, flexibility training, strength training, SAQ, etc.) What time of the day will you do your dryland training and for what length of time?
3. Tactical Goals (e.g., watch video of recent games, work on various game situations- breakaways, screens, wraparounds, etc. at practice to improve performance strategies, talk to goalie coach/head coach, etc.)
4. Technical Goal (e.g., skating skills, rebound control, tracking drills, angle/positioning drills, puck handling, etc.
