[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is she competitive by nature? Does she have the drive to win at everything, be the best at everything? You either have that innate competitiveness or you don’t. [/quote] OP here. No, she doesn't have the drive to win at everything. Are there many 8-year-olds who have such intensity? It seems like an emotion that might develop at a slightly older age. I don't think anybody on my daughter's team wants to "win at everything". My daughter does like to develop her skills. She enjoys sharpening her passing and dribbling and her moves with the ball. She puts more energy into practice than other kids. She is quite focused during practice -- more so than the other kids. Yet on the field in a game situation, the other kids seem to turn it up to a higher gear, while seems to leave some of her gas in the tank. One never has the sense she is really giving it her all.
