[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If she loves playing goalie and is reasonably athletic, go for it! On the girls' side, there is a huge shortage of goalies, so you can easily switch to a new team needing a goaltender if she finds herself in the backup role at her current club. There are a lot of great training/private instruction options to help her get up to speed and improve if she is motivated. [/quote]

Girl goalies are always in demand. In the DMV, Wolfe Hockey is great for private, semi private and group goalie lessons and camps. My advice would be to invest in those to start, and if you can swing multiple hockey camps this summer, do one goalie specific camp and one regular camp where she’ll get a lot of shots on her. Some clubs will have goalie skills clinics or may contribute to individual training during the season. Coming up, look for skill clinics in advance of tryouts. Call around to girl teams and let them know you have a beginner 12U girl goalie and I bet you’ll have a lot of interest.

Locally, Replay Sports in Rockville is best spot for used goalie equipment. Limited hours but you can call ahead and ask let them know you have a new goalie; be prepared to spend a solid 90 minutes there.[/quote]
