[quote=Anonymous]Stick skills are definitely great. The generically prescribed "wall ball" is an ok idea, but you really want the the kid to be doing as game like practice as possible.

Find an actual wall, not a rebounder. Have her moving laterally to pass and catch on the move. The farther away from the wall the better, pass the ball hard, catch hard passes.

If you can get out and throw with her (you can use a baseball/softball glove if needed) that's great too.

Kids aren't really allowed, stupidly, to get together and play for fun. But that's what will make the biggest difference. Having fun, playing with friends/teammates. You can go to a tennis court and do pick up with tennis balls or a swax lax ball.

You don't have to get a coach to help with speed. Time the kid running a sprint. It can be the flying 10 yard sprint, or just do a 40 and time it. Rest 3 minutes. Do it again, time it. If the time drops off, stop. Come back in two days.

Do that 3 times a week, for 3 months. Your kid will be faster. You'll save hundreds and hundreds of dollars.[/quote]
