Alright, here it is: I'm 14, a goalie, female, and on a 19U girls district bound team. As of yesterday, I am the main goalie. The other goalie (19 years old) has no commitment to the team and has only showed up twice and somehow got to play more then me and I have been there. Coach told me yesterday that from here on out I will be the goalie whether or not the other shows up. I know the girls are happy about this because the other one is a real female dog (excuse my language). Therefore, I have a huge support team (most of the girls are 17, 18).
So, my questions: How to I have confidence in myself when everyone around me does (coaches, players, and parents)? How should I train to keep in top shape? I don't get to get on the ice but once a month, so everyday I do 160 up-downs and have 150 pucks thrown at me. What can I do for hand-eye coordination? Strenght? Anything?
Please, I am so nervous about this and districts are the end of February. Eek! Please help me!!
