My dd plays for this basketball team, it isn't a school team...i guess you could call it a mini travel team since they have girls from a few different schools but they mainly just play in leagues. I will start off by saying she is a very hard worker and gives 110% at all times. Starting out in the fall, she was a starter for this team and got a lot of playing time. (She will be the first one to say that softball is her best sport and she isn't the best basketball player on the court my any means)...but for the little time she put into it, she does (did) very well. A couple months ago her "friends" on the team started ignoring her and excluding her from everything....then her coach even quit asking her to open gyms and no long offered her rides to practice as he has before. Now she is lucky to step foot on the court in games, scrimmages and she said she even sets out most of the time at practice. She has been so beat down...her confidence right now is at an all time low. I'm lost as to why this coach seems to have an issue with her but is there ever a time to step in and say "that's enough"? I have never taught her to quit anything but she is miserable and it's effecting her confidence in things more important like school and softball.
