[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]GKs are a premium if your team is lucky enough to have a decent GK the coach should work with him/her as much as possible to keep them from jumping clubs. 1,6,and 9 in that order hardest positions to replace when you lose them.[/quote]

+1.  In my experience, a lot of coaches don't seem to value good GKs nearly enough.  Not sure why that is but if I were a coach and I had a talented GK, I'd do whatever I could to keep that player on my team or at least, in my club.  Every team needs one and it's not easy to find good GKs especially as kids get older.[/quote]

I agree with this so much!  DS's team had a talented GK last year but the coach was very critical of him (especially if a goal was scored).  The GK's parents talked to the coach more than once but apparently he was very defensive and basically told them that he was the coach and they didn't have the right to question how he ran the team.  Needless to say, they pulled their son from the team and we didn't have a full-time GK through the end of the season which obviously sucked.  :-([/quote]
