My DD (8 yr old) has lost her confidence due to a trash talking team mate. She is a very good pitcher, but has back slid tremendously over the past 2-3 weeks since this other girl started in on her. The other girl is the daughter of a coach, so I don't know how much I can really do. The coach is aware of what's going on, but nothing is going to change. Is there anything I can do as a parent to help her get her confidence back?
Her mechanics have become very rough and her speed is WAY down. My DD loves pitching and loves the game of softball, but this past week was the first time that she wasn't excited about going to her game.
btw, my DD won't be with this coach again after this season.
Hopefully you all can help.
