[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Anyone on have a child who is a goalie? My ds has only ever played goalie for various sports. This is now high school and it is SO much pressure. When he doesn't do well it is very hard to watch.[/quote] Spouse and oldest were/re goalies. Spouse tells child "it's not all on you. The ball (soccer for us) got through 10 other players before it got through you."[/quote] I am the contrarian here. Yes, it is very hard to be the goalie. But imagine the defender being blamed for every shot the goalie misses and the goalie only ever being cheered on. This is not the right attitude to send to your goalie or your team. My DD had a field hockey goalie who's family could be heard on the sidelines constantly blaming everybody else. Imagine how boring sports would be if defenders and midfielders were just so perfect that they never go a shot off. Goalies do make mistakes. Please stop telling them to blame their teammates.[/quote]
