[quote=Anonymous]Many team coaches are not qualified to serve as GK coaches and generally will be unable to offer or provide GK-specific guidance. DD has a great relationship with the team coach but they rarely discuss the specifics of her position beyond things like "great save", "love that distribution decision", etc. Her club has a GK coach on staff but after a couple of months of working with him, it was pretty clear that the club was just "checking a box" so they could say that they offered GK training. DD trains privately with an excellent GK coach twice a week and that's where the meaningful position-specific learning occurs. This coach has come to a few of her games, purely out of support for DD, and has offered meaningful feedback based on what was observed. We've seen many different coaches over the years and my guess is that your previous coach was more the exception than the rule when it comes to the kind of interaction and feedback your daughter received.[/quote]
