Lead by example be positive
I think she does that, positive example.
Lead by example be positive
If she's the #1 on the team she is not being pushed. Try to get her in a more competitive situation.
Maybe let the coach know you will be looking for guesting opportunities for the weeks she is does not have a tournament with the tea.
You can't force it, but you can lead by example. Don't take plays off even in practice. Go hard in drills. Don't get down if you get out,etc.
One thing that is important is to try and make different groups of players feel welcome. Just hanging out with the new kid during a game break, or telling someone who
is having a bad day to relax.
As a catcher sensing the mood of a team. Sometimes 2 bad plays in a row can lead to 5. Teach her to take the initiative to go talk to the infield when she feels they need it. Tell them a joke or anything to loosen them up. Sometimes it might be a simple let's wake up during Sunday morning warm-ups.
If becoming a better player is her goal being on a team where she's way ahead of the rest isn't the way to do it. JMO.
Attitude plays a big part.
I certainly did not mean to imply she should act like a coach. I have never played a team sport, so I do not know about the dynamics of a team. I had assumed one player would step up and takes a peer leadership role. I hear her in the dugout when her team is batting cheering on her teammate at bat. In the last scrimmage the coaches gave the catching responsibilities in the second game of the day to two other players, and my DD was at SS, encouraging the pitcher, continuing to call the number of outs and to what base the next play should be. She is also the one of the kids who will always carry the equipment to the coaches car, even while she is dragging her catchers bag.
Oh no, I didn't get that implication at all.
