[quote=Mannschaft]This is why even though I played keeper for a while for my club team years ago, and I suspect my kids might be good at it, I do not allow them to play keeper at a young age. Coaches tried to do the same thing to my DD, and I wouldn’t allow it. My recommendation is to push back hard on this. No more than half of every game in goal, your kid should play the other half (or close to it) on the field, and should get plenty of field practice and scrimmage time. Any goalie training should be incremental to the field practice the rest of the players get. This changes after a couple of years, but should hold true at least for U9-10[/quote]
