DD is 10, playing both rec(LL) and low level TB (first year), both at 10u. She is good player, but very competitive, she pitches, still learning control, and catches. The issue is when playing with her LL team, her frustration is getting the better of her, and affecting her play. try very calmly explaining to her (as we did before the season began, frustration with level of play reason she started TB this spring but still wanted to do rec to play with friends, of course none of her friends are on her team) several times, that allowing frustration with teammates play to impact her play is just as detrimental to the team as poor play by her teammates. Also trying to get her to realize this is her time to develop and demonstrate leadership (she is one of two best players on the team, and the other is very quite and reserved by nature). she just simply is not understanding that she picked up the game easily, and it is not so easy for the rest of the girls. gets frustrated with her catcher and fielders, and then her pitching comes unraveled.
any suggestions?
