I play ladies Ball Hockey in Central Ontario... I came from the ice... started out playing Ringette up in Northern Ontario...
I stopped playing Ice Hockey, because I found it way to difficult to juggle the two. If I had a great night in ice, I stunk in Ball the next day and vice versa. That is just for me personally, I know many ladies that play ice in net and can play jump between the pipes in ball with little to no problems.
I agree with alot of what is being said here... with the exception of the players pants. I play at a very high level (I've been head to head with a lot of Team Canada players) some of those ladies can really fire a ball. I wear my complete gear from ice as I do for ball... including pants and body armour.
I play ball hockey both indoors and outdoors. The floor on the outdoor courts are completely different from the concrete inside... indoors is much more slick and way bigger. I wear under armour clothing and tight capris under my goalie pants to keep cool, and drink a ton of water during my summer games. I often request not to wear black jerseys and sport a nice white one on hot summer days. I also ditched my goalie mask with Chrome bars, to a Bauer NME 5 mask with the flat wires... made a huge difference in the sun, without the glare.
I find in outdoor games, I play at the top of my crease, coming out a lot... playing the angles... a lot of girls can snipe the ball way better than the could with the puck. Indoor I play back about a foot as it's a bigger surface and was getting beat with the back door pass more than usual.
Point shots can easily mess with you and change direction, especially if it's a windy day or raining (we play in all 4 seasons, in all weather).
I recently added low friction (slippery) tape to my goalie pads... I really does work... they give me that extra slide, that I desired, but not too slippery.
This is what I bought https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B00KCMID6O/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I tried roller fly's, but found them too loud, clunky and heavy... I believe they are better suited for Roller Hockey than ball hockey.
And if you really get into and have cash to burn Reason Y offers custom goalie pads, with built in slidders... a guy friend of mine has a pair and loves them.
www.ballhockeygear.ca (Canadian) also has slick sheets... which I see is now on sale... dammit.
