yeah I think there was a thread about this about a year ago, but I used to go for 30 like a good amount of hockey goalies, but I switched to 23 cause it's like the best number ever. and its Mike Jordans also.

nationwide, the most popular goalie numbers are probably: 1, 2, 23, and 15. you see those a lot in the college and pro game, as well as many high-schoolers. i wore 23 last year, and wasn't in love with it, so this year i have 7, which so far has served me decently.

ive always liked the low numbers i used to be 2 but an older kid is taking that this year so im thinking either 4,5,6,7,8 or 9 probably not 9 tho

great goalies right here, I wore 8 for my HS but for Vail i was forced to use 22 (avy pic) which isn't bad b/c i met Gary Gait there and he got a laugh for a goalie wearing 22

I wore 19 last year when I was on JV.
Someone had that already when I made varsity I'm # 20 now.
and 20 is obviously awesome.

I love the number 20
i think it all depends on what you love and what you've been assigned. I wouldnt ask someone, just make it personal with yourself
lol, its wierd
but my coach jut gave me 20 because it was big so i could put my chest pad underneath lol
now im stuck with it =]

ok story of my numbers comin up lol
i grew up bein a hockey goalie first i started lacrosse about a year ago but watchin the nhl and other games i realized goalies either have number 1, 99, or a number in the 30's
i didn't understand why the 30's were used and i wanted 99 for hockey (i ended up with 90 though) so the only one left for lacrosse was 1
sorry if i bored anyone that's that undying logic for unimportant things haha

13, its my way of letting the other team's shooters know that today is not their lucky day.
Backup #'s are 10, 3 or whatever I get stuck with in some cases.

33 is the best goalie number in all sports. (patrick roy for hockey cheaa) then 39. i wore 39 some dude stole 33 before i could get it
BluejayBlitz9
07-16-2008, 09:12 PM
im not a goalie but 2 would be the nicest goalie number... for defense i gut 16 (lucky number) or 44, 43... then for lower numbers anything from 10-18 even and 13, 24... i have a history of kids picking my choice before me so I am forced to have a backup

8 has been my lucky number since I started playing soccer when I was four. needless to say, i still wear it when I play soccer.
as for lacrosse... number 45 is the way I play. Actually, it was the only one my chest pad would fit under. now it's mine. I would honestly like to wear 26 or 66 (after my favorite goalies)
