[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]At what age is it appropriate for players to specialize in positions? I have a 7 year old girl that has spent a lot of time in goal this season with her U10 team (playing up a year). Her coach thinks she would be a good goalie although not sure how you can tell that at 7. She doesn't mind it, but the team is good so she rarely gets shots on goal. Is this something I should address with the coach or just wait it out? [/quote] At this age, they should not specialize. She should be playing different positions. If the coach primarily plays a 7 year old in the goal, she will not learn to play in the field and develop her foot skill. It should set off alarm bells. Find a better team or club. [/quote]
