[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Reading that this is an injury fill in for a GK, talk to your current coach and get their input. Also ask yourself how DD would feel if she played well in the spring, maybe won a tournament or two and had a great time, then got demoted when the prior GK recovered [/quote]

+1 There is no guarantee that when other goalie is healthy again your dd will still get top spot.[/quote]

No.  But there is a guarantee that she won't get the top spot if she doesn't try.  This is an opportunity.  If she wants to play at a higher level, then she should seize it.  No it may not work out - that's life.

Equally if she has other goals it is perfectly reasonable to turn the opportunity down.  But don't turn it down because it may not work out.  By that reasoning you'd never get out of bed in the morning.[/quote]

The easiest way to move up is to move clubs. In OP’s situation, best case she moves up and takes a girl’s spot due to injury. She better hope that girl doesn’t have good friends on the team, otherwise she’s getting ostracized (especially as a keeper)[/quote]

Girls teams can be social minefields - but I highly doubt this would be an issue.  Girls ostracize teammates for complex reasons, but they rarely ostracize the best players because they all want to win.[/quote]

I actually think the girls will be grateful they have a good keeper to help them out while the OG Keeper heals. They wont ostracize her for being temp solution.
