[quote=Anonymous]Peter Cech the goalie for Arsenal has worn a helmet for years after a nasty collision with a post. It's not that uncommon. Teams seem to always need goalkeepers, but I'd be worried about getting pigeonholed in that position unless it is something they really want. I'd also ask are you tall? Do you think your DD will grow up to be tall? It's not necessary to be tall to be a good goalie, but it does help. I'm not sure if goalies suffer < or > risk of concussions vs other players. Anecdotally I'd say no from the teams I've been with, but it also depends on the strength of your defense. A weak defense in front of your goalie can lead to them having to do a lot more work and take a lot more shots vs a team with a solid back line. [/quote]
