Question: I have a question regarding my play. I am a goalie starting my third year in the net as a senior. I play for a club out of Wilmington Ohio. but heres my question. i am giving up allot of goals to my non stick side and 5 hole. and when we lose a game i feel like its my fault. which allot of it is, but i also get about an average of 70 shots on the cage a game and save most but i let allot. any recommendations on what i should do to improve my game? him also doing allot of AB and strength workouts in the weight room 4 days a week!
Answer: Zac you shouldn't feel that it's your fault when you guys lose a game. If your team was any good they wouldn't need a goalie. And if they are letting up 70 shots a game that's a player/coaching issue.
The good thing about playing on a bad team is that you are getting a ton of shots to work on. It's better than playing on a good team where you are getting less shots.
It's awesome you are hitting the weight room. Train like a football player would train and you'll be well on your way to becoming a more explosive and talented lacrosse goalie.

My Other Blog - AthleteSpecific.com
Over the years i've learned a lot of stuff.
From being an athlete. To learning about business. To thinking constantly about being a better lacrosse goalie. To learning about strength and conditioning. Much of it I wish I knew when I was younger.
There is a saying that, "Youth is wasted on the young." It is so true. So I started this blog to share some of the things I've learned over the years.
I call the blog, "Athlete Specific" because education and information needs to be specific to the athlete who it is given to. In this day and age much of the information we receive is painted with a broad stroke. It tries to touch everyone but really, your journey in this life is based on you. And you are a very unique individual.
So I hope you take some time to read these posts. They are more tidbits that i've learned and want to share with you in hopes that they will make your journey through this athletic world just a little bit smoother.
Good luck and please let me know if they've helped you.
