D'hooghe: the Olympic's youngest goalkeeper

I recently found out an interesting fact, which I think demonstrates the rise of the young goalkeeper and the coaching staff of high level hockey's recognition of outstanding young talent. Aisling D'Hooghe, Belgian's first choice was 18 when she played in the recent Olympics. Whilst I'd like to blog more about this at some point, I feel this is a reflection of the improved standard of technical coaching available to high level goalkeepers, whilst the confidence of youth aids the ability to play with a strong mental game. Interesting!
