[quote=Anonymous]I think you are under estimating the level of play and what is expected of a goalie by that age in travel soccer. They will expect the goalie to have good foot skills (goalies are involved in that aspect of the game and players will pass back to them etc) and they will expect good game judgment. It’s a lot more involved than standing in the goal and having good eye-hand coordination. Also the mental toughness aspect is very very real. You don’t know how any kid is going to respond to the position and I wouldn’t find out in a travel soccer game for the first time with a bunch of kids and parents who are pretty invested in the whole thing.[/quote]
