I don't know, maybe it would help. Sometimes, short 30-minute or 60-minute sessions with someone who knows what they're doing can be beneficial to both her mechanics and her self-esteem. Nothing like pounding a few balls during front toss to bring a smile to a girl's face. Also, lessons can jump-start a love for the game. One-on-one instruction removes the social aspect of the team and just might help this little girl make a solid jump in skill development.
I've taken on many pupils who couldn't hit a beach ball with a tennis racket and had them doing just fine in a few short months. Almost always, I heard the same refrain from parents: "She just wouldn't concentrate hard enough at practice with her team."
I don't know this kid or much about her situation. All I do know is that I've seen it work more than enough times that I wouldn't rule it out for anybody.
Never thought about that. I'll let her know. Thanks!
