[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is she physically aggressive during games? It’s one thing to have an aggressive attitude and another to actually be physically aggressive. Some of the girls that aren’t that serious  during practice and have behavior problems are the ones that have no problem bumping someone off the ball and tend to win the 50-50 balls. They take chances and when it works the coaches like it and ignore all the times it doesn’t  [/quote]

It’s softball and another sport, neither have 1:1 situations. But the thing you said about taking chances and coaches ignoring when it doesn’t work out rings very true. Something about how my DD goes for things doesn’t get noticed during games. Should she be more vocal? More flashy? I’m  
at a loss. [/quote]

My DC is in a similar situation but the 1:1 goes to "the clique", which is the relatives of the coaches and their friends.

The only way to improve and get the 1:1 is to get individual position coaching. We pissed and moaned about that but then realized we could do that and nothing would happen. Or do it and DC would improve to the point they couldn't ignore it. That's what has happened. EXCEPT (warning: vent ahead) that DC competes for a spot with one of the family members. So DC will always lose out to that kid no matter what that kid does or does not do (and objectively, when they compete outside the family sphere, with non-related coaches, DC does equal or better than this other kid. The other kid is very good, to be clear, but not in a way that justifies the playing time and attention received). I hate it. I hate it more than I can possibly describe.[/quote]
