[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP PP here! So we had our first tournament of the season over this weekend with our new coach. As previously mentioned, we just told her to listen to coach.

Our DD did well. The coach actually switched her to a Holding Center Mid Position which she payed most of the tournament. Only 2 of 6 goals were scored against her while playing that position. We only scored 4 goals over the weekend and DD had two of them from the time she did play striker. Despite the losses, she seemed happy and confident about the situation.

It's an odd and an ironic situation. Most of the other players up top are selfish, hence the lack of offense. Will be interesting to see what the coach does moving forward as DD provided half the goals despite the little playing time up top.

You are spending WAY too much time overthinking this.  You say that she was happy and confident with the results of this past weekend.  It should end there.  Full stop.  However, you seem to be very concerned with her teammates and their style of play ("selfishness").  Let your daughter navigate this and, since she is currently "happy and confident", sit back and enjoy watching her play.  If she's on a high-level team and continues on that path as she gets older, the pressure will ramp up enough on it's own--she won't need you being overly involved.  [/quote]
