My kid gets better at practice just like the other 24 girls on the roster. My daughter gets better then the other 23 by what she does in her own time in the backyard and yes me paying for skills training and speed/agility. If the club promised a goalie coach so be it but kids get better from the extra time they put in away from the team. Somepay money for extra training, some dont and you can tell who doesnt. Goalies arent different except there is only 1 one field and 2 on a roster .
