| Combine Coach's Overall Comments |
| Is willing to communicate and will improve with more specific instructiob. Can improve on timing when closing down the attacker. Make sure to set just before the shot is being taken. Be aware of positioning when ball goes wide. Do not lose sight of what job responsibilities are as a keeper when things do not go well for the team. Concentrate on what you can control.: starting position, decision making, distribution, communication, etc. |
