Welcome to the A.R.T. of Goaltending
Now in it's 15th year, The A.R.T. of Goaltending is a goaltending school dedicated to improving the playing level of our goaltenders. We run all year round in the Quinte area. Over the years we have taught players from novice to Jr. A, male and female.



"... On top of teaching hockey skills we are here to develop young people. They learn self discipline, fellowship, friendship and doing something for someone else without expecting anything in return... "

- Don Thompson - Quoted in the Napanee Guide Aug. 2005

"...This isn't about winning or losing, although my kids have a great track record..."
- Don Thompson - Quoted in The County

"...Games are won and lost in net, and its our job to teach young goaltenders technique and mental preparation...
- Don Thompson - Quoted in the Trentonian
