[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]And she has no idea why? Are you totally sure?

This situation actually sounds like possibly (but not necessarily) it could be something to do with (whether real or perceived by the coach) behavior. Missing practice, a tangle with a teammate, not hustling, etc? Anything like that going on? Or is she perceived as not part of the group for any reason (like all the other girls played last year, or play on a travel team together)?

Only asking because most JV coaches would likely not sit the same one player 100% of the time if the games are not competitive…typically all would get at least some token playing time in that scenario.

It is strange, right? It's a school team that they had to beg kids to try out for. She isn't my first child who played sports, and they have sat out and it didn't seem weird to me. But this seems particularly punitive - I mean, when you are losing 11-2 in the last minutes of the game, at least let her on the field. My daughter is very shy - she's sweet when you get to know her but it will take an act of God for her to speak to the coach - the only thing I can think of is that the coach thinks she doesn't want to be there because she is quite reserved - but even still, I wouldn't punish her for that.

That does seem really strange. Can she email the coach then? Keep it brief.

Maybe it is because she is shy/reserved, yes? So showing some initiative could really help her case. [/quote]
