I have an idea. Call a 6AM practice and if she doesn't show up, cut her. I have never known a teen toker that will get out of bed, very early.

I think Phathead has a good handle on this. You do not need to deal with it specifically until it directly affects your area. Now if she was smoking while at one of your TB tourneys or a practice (or shows up for one of them stoned) then deal with it.My mom always had the saying "Teachers handle what happens at school and I handle what happens at home". This was of course when paddling was still allowed in school. While I havn't had to deal with any issues like this I think I would take the same approach as my mom. If it happens at the field then I have to deal with it and that would be easier of course if the penalities vs infraction has already been discussed. If it isn't during team function of any kind then it is the parents job to deal with it. While we coaches seem to be second parents for some we are not the real parents and it their job to address these type of situations.
Funny... I thought the brownie tasted earthy...
Practice went as I expected... elephant in the room. The new girl came to "try out" and wowed everyone, but heres where is got weird... toker and my dd used to be pretty close before the weed or bullying incident and now they are supposed to hate each other. I get a call today as Im headed to practice...its the stoner and her friend and they need a ride!!!!!!! OMG ARE YOU F'n KIDDING ME???? I decide to kill her with kindness and pick her and her friend up. My dd is soooo pissed at me as we pull up. Practice stayed busy and somewhat productive. In an attempt to get the girls talking again I offered to buy McDonalds for them on the way home. We stop and get some lunch and the girls slowly start chatting about school and typical gossip. As we are headed home after dropping the girls off, my dd's phone rings... its her, and now shes asking if dd has plans tonight and can she come over???? I dont know what the hell happened? But at least theyre not shooting death glares anymore.
