When you ignite a matchstick then work will be done or not?
no work will be done because force is applied but displacement is zero so no work will be done.
Is there any work done when you ignite a matchstik?

What reaction happens when we ignite a match stick?
That depends on whether you are considering the work done to overcome the force of static friction between the match head and the striking paper. Other than that, as I understand it, after you have heated part of the chemical compound on the match head sufficiently so that it combusts, the heat it outputs then affects the chemicals in close proximity heating them to the point of combustion. I'm not sure you could consider that chemical reaction to be work done, but you could argue it outputs energy.
What if a goalies stick is to thick?
Then it makes it hard to flex the stick, which will make it harder to shoot the puck and also lower the accuracy. It will also be heavier than a normal stick, which will make it tougher and more tiring to work with during a training or match.

Will black powder still work if it has been soaked in water but has dried?
It may still work it it got damp and dried out, but the reliability and burn rate will be sporadic at best. You can test the powder to see if it will first, ignite and second compare burn rate with fresh powder. Measure two like amounts, one fresh and one old or the damp powder, place one measure on a dry safe place, and ignite it. Do the same with the other and compare. Use small amounts, 20 grains or so and it should be obvious if there is a difference. You should get a "poof" not a "hiss" Also I have found it best to use a long fireplace match or a match taped to a longer rod.
