Vaughn's Velocity line is back again in intermediate sizes with the VE8 Int goalie trapper. The Vaughn VE8 int goalie catch glove is built off of its bigger brother the VE8 Pro senior goalie trapper, but shrinks the size by 4% to make it more comfortable for smaller, or growing goalies alike.

Just like the VE8 Pro, the VE8 intermediate trapper features a similar shape to the V7 XF catch glove from years past. This intermediate catch glove is a lot closer to the Velocity gloves of the past from Vaughn and will be more designed for goalies that prefer their fingers to be pointing towards the ice or the boards when their glove is in the ready position.

The Velocity VE8 intermediate goalie trapper also features the new split and offset T that Vaughn is offering now. The Split T provides more surface area and better puck retention, and the offset helps the pocket close more effectively.

Goalie Catcher Sizing

More times than not, the fit of your Goalie Catcher is often overlooked. This is likely the result of the limited size availability compared to other pieces of equipment, however a properly sized Catcher provides you the protection and stick control you trust.

Which Catcher Size is for you?
The first step to finding the correct Catcher size is to utilize the “heel-of-palm-to-tip-of-middle-finger” measurement. This measurement will generally send you to the appropriate size you need.

Analyzing the Catcher Fit
It is important to make sure the palm lines up properly within the catching glove, so that it can be closed without excessive force. New goalie gloves will be difficult to close initially, but through either a standard break-in process, or "baking" the catcher with our in-house convection skate ovens, they will soften over time.
*We do not recommend using any conventional in-home ovens, as the results have been very unpredictable in the past and could damage your Catcher.*

Next you want to ensure the adjustable wrist strap goes directly across the wrist bone, and has minimal to no interference with your chest protector. The goaltender should be able to swivel their wrist to accommodate a range of save selections without any restrictions from the chest protector.

Sizing for Growing Goaltenders
For growing goaltenders we recommend following the guidelines set above, rather than sizing up to accommodate growth. Oversized goalie gloves restrict control, especially for young developing goalies. As you climb the size ladder for Catchers, typically the glove requires more strength for pocket closure.

Which Hand Do I Need?
Figuring out which hand you need for your Catcher can be slightly confusing. Goalies generally refer to themselves as "REGULAR" or "FULL RIGHT". Below is the easiest way to simplify which hand you need.

    Goalie Catcher Hands Simplified
  • Regular - Catcher worn on your Left Hand
  • Full Right - Catcher worn on your Right Hand
