Between sizes? Go shorter for close control and dribbling, longer for reach and hitting. FIH rules cap stick length at 105 cm (41.3").
Goalie sticks are built for saves and clearances, not dribbling. They often have a reinforced face and a head shape that covers more area when you go to ground. Many goalkeepers use a slightly shorter stick for faster hand movement.
Pick a length you can control with one hand and a weight that lets you react quickly. Junior goalies should choose a junior length.

Many keepers go an inch or so shorter than their field stick for faster hand movement.
They can, but goalie sticks are shaped for saves rather than dribbling and passing.
Some are reinforced and slightly heavier, while others are made light for quick reactions.
A junior-length stick is easier to control. Some brands make junior goalie sticks.
