All right the next part of the basics is that is very important in the goal keeping position is your stance. As you will notice the goalie needs to be in a good athletic position. The knees are slightly bent. The hands are out in front. Okay! They are nice and good distance between her chest and the shaft.
Her feet, have shoulder width apart, she is on the balls of her feet, she is not on the toes and she is not back on her heels. So she is in a position to make every save and move left or move right, very, very quickly.
As you will notice a lot of goal keepers might bring their hand into their chest. You do not want to be in the right position this way to make the save. Your stick needs to be out in front. Hands are good width apart as which we just touched on. Good athletic position in your knees and your toes, on the balls of your feet ready to react for any shot.
