what would be a good reflex time

[axemen lacrosse]

is .275 a good reflex time for a box goalie. if not what would be a good time

[Redbirds Lax]

how did u calculate that?

[EHSLAX12]

i think it would be something like velocity over distance between you and ball. something like that.

i just did a reflex test over the internet 10 times and got the average. not sure how accurate it is though

Wait, can you post a link for the test, Id like to try.

Or you can have someone hold a yard/meter stick, drop it, and you try to catch it as fast as you can. I will get the deffinite calculations for that on the 4th..



I think I remember it, its the velocity of a falling object, which is,
9.8 m/sec^2


divided by the number that you caught the meter stick on [start on 0 for the meter stick]

That isn'ta good judge of how good your reflexes as a goalie are. That tests the reactions of your finger... whereas a goalie needs good reactions in his whole body. A guy who spends 10 hours a day playing Halo would probably do better on that test than a good goalie...

So true... I have a really good reaction twords the ball and the best I got on that thing is .344

[sirfartsalot295]

I got a response time of zero seconds on that thing. I promise you. But it was like once in 20. My other ones were like .234 or something. And I dont play halo or any computer games. And ya that doesnt have much to do with reflexes for goalie.

Okay, I think it has been made quite clear that this test will not determine skills. Not to mention, it has nothing to do with being recruited, so I'm closing this...
