Small issue on dd's team this summer. We have a player who has an impossible attitude. It is more complicated because the dad is an asst. Coach. This is a 16u exposure team. Some examples are the girl showing up umpires who dare to call a pitch a strike on her, ignoring the head coach, then acting like she didn't hear him, literally stomping off to right field because the other catcher was in. I like her dad, but definitely does not see his dd the way the rest of the parents do. The head coach has not given in. She is currently the number 2 catcher. I sort of seen this coming, when she made her hs varsity squad. She sat all year on the bench, but if you could watch her at practices, she acted like she was the mvp on her hs team. Her and her dads head swelled quite a bit. Now we are back at travel on a good team and she is currently a role type player. It really doesn't have an effect on my dd. She knows to stay away from the cancer. I do help the team with the pitchers, and occasionally have to deal with the poor attitude of this girl. I have simply learned to ignore everything and work with the girls who want to get better. The last part of the story is the head coach asked me if I had heard anything. I guess the dad called and complained his dd was not catching enough. I told him I didn't hear anything. I am thinking there is some more to this story upcoming. Am I right by staying out of it? If my dd displayed this behavior, I would pull her off the field and she would not see daylight for a month. My gut says this girl will be on yet another team by fall.
