One goal against should never turn a young Goalie’s experience into an adult performance review. The next play is the lesson.
Young Goalies often follow the puck with their eyes while losing awareness of the posts. Teach a calm head turn and a small repositioning movement.
A Goalie must learn to arrive balanced before being asked to stop difficult shots. Teach short pushes, stopping under control and facing the puck.
