[quote=Anonymous]My daughter was a "smart" and skilled player - but not at all naturally "aggressive" in terms of her soccer playing, and she was actually a relatively fast runner, but she was not one of those kids darting all around the field. She ended up not making her varsity high school soccer team b/c the coach thought she had a lack of hustle (even tho she had much better skills than many). She ended up running X-country instead, which suits her well. If the issue is running, there are some coaches who can work on things like gait and movement. If it's a temperament/aggression thing, you can start (esp if you are the mom) with going out & doing some work outs that model "aggressiveness" in sports being ok... (like yelling as loud as you can, saying 'kick the ball as hard as you can', etc)... but sometimes temperament is what it is. [/quote]
