I am very frustrated at this point and would like some advice from others. DD was an average travel player when she got picked for her team. She was recommended for travel partially because of her heart and drive for the game. Now she seems to have lost it. ?Her coaches and I) believe that she has great potential. She just doesn't seem to give a hoot right now-that's how I see it. Not sure why.....not sure how to fix it. I think part of it is that we only have 9 girls so at this point no matter her performance she gets to play because they have to play her. I have spent a lot of my time and money to give her this opportunity and now would just LOVE to yank her off the team but that would leave them with not enough girls to field a team. I don't believe the coaches are as frustrated as me but they have to be starting to get there. She is just showing no desire to get better. She was making horrible throws at practice earlier this week and I saw no attempt to fix it. She has also been in a hitting slump since we got outdoors-she's not hit a thing-many times going down looking. We have talked about it and she has no confidence that she can do it. She was hitting fine(not great not terrible) in the fall and winter. Nothing seems to work. She seems to be only putting half of her heart into it. Could it just be a slump? Do I keep putting money into lessons to give her a little bump? Or should I quit wasting my money-I feel like I just took 1000.00 and flushed it down the toilet. I just need to know what others have done or what you would do if it were your daughter. :-[ :'( > Not sure which to feel.
