What People Are Saying
Nic Attanasio
"I wanted to take a moment to express my deepest gratitude for the tremendous impact you've had on my daughters journey as a goalie, despite the fact we have never met in person.
The Goaltender Masterclass has been an invaluable resource for us. As a father, I've witnessed first hand the positive influence your guidance has had on my daughter. Whenever she mentions something you've said, whether it's about technique or mindset, it reinforces the importance of your teachings in her mind.
I often find myself hearing your voice as we drive to the rink, with my daughter rewatching your videos on t-pushes, one of her areas for improvement. It’s truly remarkable how she engages with your instruction, responding to your questions as if you were right there beside her. Your encouragement hasn’t just impacted her skills on the ice, it has also ignited a fire within her. Just recently, she went undefeated in a tournament displaying a new found determination and resilience.
‍
The way she talks about her aspirations to play professionally, echoing your words about reaching for the stars, fills me with pride and hope for her future. Your influence extends beyond the technical aspects of the game; it’s instilled in her a sense of ambition and self-belief that transcends hockey.
‍
I wanted you to know that your dedication to your craft has touched the lives of aspiring goalies like my daughter, an 8 year old from Jersey in ways you may never fully realize.
Respectfully, one happy dad!"

"Hey coach, I purchased the Masterclass for my son and we are both loving it!
I’m helping coach his U13 team this year and I am working with the goalies for 30 min each practice we have. I am using your on ice programs inside the masterclass to do this. I printed out the practice plans and they have been very helpful.
I just wanted to say thanks for this. It has really helped and we are noticing an improvement because of your drills.
Your positive contribution to minor hockey goaltending is real."
Myles Cossey
"Hey Coach Wapps, I first off want to say thank you for all that you do, thank you for making your content and helping 100s of goalies become successful. My son is a u-11 goalie in Camrose  Ab and without your programs, videos, and Podcasts I know for a fact he would not be where he is today and would have probably given up being a goalie for the simple fact he does not get the skills In minor hockey as he does from watching and listening to you, he listens to your stories, your struggles, how you overcome and how you became a stronger person to end up where you are today again I thank you!"
John ONeal
"This entire program is AMAZING! It's about time that someone was able to put together a legit program from the fundamentals to advanced work that can be easily followed due to the simple explanation"
Jeremy Messner
"I purchased the Masterclass to help my 10u goalie with the fundamentals and the mental aspects of the position. This is his second season playing hockey and gravitated towards the crease very early into his second season. Our organization lacks goalie coaching at this level even in a big facility like San Jose, CA. Love the videos Coach Wapps and I appreciate the effort to put a program like this together!"
Nathan Kochan
"I’m new to the goalie community. The Masterclass has helped my 8 year old son a lot. I have never played the position so I was struggling to help him develop because I never knew what to teach him or how to teach it to him. The videos inside these programs really help us make the most out of our development time now, we can now focus on one new skill/technique using the lessons and practice plans provided."
Ryan Dunlop
"Hey Coach Wapps, My name is Henry Dunlop and I am a 2016 from a small town in Ontario. I’ve been obsessed with goalie since the day I put skates on.
My dad was a goalie and like a total moron, he tried to get me to play like Mike Ritcher. Thanks to the programs in the Goaltender Masterclass I think my dad finally has his head screwed on straight.
Thank you for putting these programs together, I wouldn’t be where I am at today without them!"
Brian Walsh
"My son is LOVING the programs inside the Masterclass so far. I’m on this ice with my son 90% of the time with our other goalie dads during practice. The practice plans inside the fundamentals and elite edgework give me the plans and direction for each practice to make sure my son and his goalie partners are developing.
So thank you very much for your effort in putting these programs together"
Graham Skelton
"New to the community, my son who is a 2016 took on goalie last year and has since enjoyed the position. The challenge is that it is difficult to get any sort of development. I decided to take it upon myself to research and learn as much as I could. In doing so, I stumbled across Increase Performance. The online programs have been crucial in my ability to help my son develop as the programs are teaching both of us everything we need to know for my son to reach his full potential. So thank you Coach Wapps for all of these programs."
Jennifer Dunton
"This is my seventh season coaching youth hockey and my sixth season coaching mites. Goalie is not a position I ever played but I want to learn how to start goalies off correctly and your programs have given me a clear path on how to do that. Thank you for putting together programs that are easy to understand, even for someone who has never played the position."
George Dunn
"Coach Wapps, Back in July of this year you came to Arvada Colorado for a camp. My son attended that camp and had an amazing time. This weekend was the first time we played at that same rink since the camp and my son has now posted 2 shutouts in a row! He tells me it's because of Coach Wapps. I believe it is heavily due to the Increase Performance online programs. He is always watching the lessons in the programs, whether it's on the way to practice or the way to school. He is playing the best hockey of his life and it is amazing to see him as his dad.
Thanks for everything you do!"

I'm Daniel Wapple, better known as Coach Wapps.
I was lucky enough to play 4 years in the WHL, however, I never took care of my body growing up which unfortunately led to career-ending double hip surgery.
I have been coaching goalies for 7 years.
There is a lack of proper resources for minor hockey goaltenders, so I build online programs at a price everyone can afford.Â
I design my online programs based on my years of experience from my playing and coaching career.
