Goalie Parents
Goalie Parent Information
- If your child is interested in trying the goalie position, why not encourage them to try something they might enjoy? Especially in the AS to U12 age groups, please avoid projecting any negative or fearful comments. We encourage you to set them up with positive support and language.
- Being a goalie is a physically demanding position that builds physical strength, stamina, agility, flexibility and mental resilience. Your child will continue to get lots of exercise as a goalie.
- Goalie equipment is provided to all teams in AS-U12 (and to older teams if needed). Your goalie is welcome to use SCRA’s team gear. However, many FT goalies prefer to have their own gear that fits them properly and that they can use for other training sessions or off-season camps.
Goalie Incentives
SCRA provides a goalie incentive to support and encourage our goalies. FT goalies in U14-U19 receive a reduced registration fee, and PT goalies in U12 and up can apply for a incentive refund at the end of the season. See our Refund Policy page for info.
If your child is registered as a PT goalie, it will depend on your team’s specific situation for how much playing time they will get in net. If you don’t have a FT goalie on your team, your PT goalie will likely get to play in net much more often. Talk to your coach.
