[quote=Anonymous]At higher levels, guest players are just that, a guest to fill in if we have injuries or exhaustion. The coach no doubt thinks they are good enough to match the level of play needed, but since the player is not on his regular roster your player isn't going to get regular roster minutes. You can play this two ways, say "no thanks" and don't expect further invitations or potential for advanced play. Or have her go to the games she is invited to, get to know the players and coach, enjoy her 5 minutes, and show what she's capable of. My older player found watching higher-level play very useful for his own development. His expectation was never to be a starter or even a majority-time player. Eventually it worked out to his benefit by being willing to show he was a team player. What does your daughter want from her soccer experience, and start there. [/quote]
