INFORMATION
Prolab Catchball: Goalie Reaction & Hand-Eye Coordination Trainer
Product Overview
The Prolab Catchball is a high-performance training tool engineered to sharpen a goaltender’s reaction time and hand-eye coordination with maximum efficiency. Even just a few minutes of use during warm-ups or cool-downs can lead to significant improvements in reflexes, visual tracking, and hand positioning.
Due to its short flight time—simulating a quick release from the slot—the Catchball repeatedly reinforces the brain-to-muscle neural pathway. It is an essential tool for mastering Head-Trajectory Theory (integrating eyes, head, and body) and Box Control (driving the gloves toward the puck to cut down angles).
