Honest question: why are you not trusting her coaches to put her in the right position and be sure she is ready? If you like the team and coaches and are, as you say, "new to this" let them do their thing and sit back and enjoy it. Let your enthusiasm=enjoyment, not stress. She'll do fine and if not she'll learn and get better : )
I completely trust the coaches. But they have said that we should work with the girls in between practices and just want to do what I can to help her. BTW this is not something I express to the coaches. I am just happy they picked her I want to do what I can to help her that's all. I am thrilled with the situation albeit admittedly a little scared for her as I stated in the OP. I'm sure you know what I mean, we all want our kids to do well and I'm a little afraid she's a tad over her head but like you said the coaches would not put her there if they didn't think she was ready. BTW it's a first year 14U club so I'm sure they will grow together.
