[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Did you have a stop watch to record playing times?

If your daughter didn’t know the game she would be slowing down the players who did know it.  Have her learn the game before the practice next time.  [/quote]

OP here. My daughter has played rec b-ball for 5 years, both in winter and summer leagues. She has strong skills and is an order of magnitude better than the coach's daughter who has weak dribbling and shooting skills, can't play defense worth a darn, and is overweight and slow.

My kid is a multisport athlete, and has excellent conditioning as a result of travel soccer. In the few minutes my kid was in the game this past weekend, she scored repeatedly.

So this isn't a question of b-ball skills. My daughter is a strong player. She isn't slowing anybody down. The team played much better when she was on the court.

Playing a lot of soccer and rec basketball doesn’t transfer into being a great basketball player.

They were playing a game and your daughter didn’t have that skill.  It was probably no big deal and parent coaches suck half the time but that could have been the reason, no matter how trivial it sounds.

We had high school coaches in rec basketball.   They sucked but they also didn’t give some players more time than others.   [/quote]
