My DD is 11 playing her second year of 10U. We play for a travel/club team that is a first year team. This is her second year with the club with her last team moving up to 12u and we didn't think it best for her to go. My DD had the chance to go to a camp that featured Jenny Finch a few weeks ago and loved it. I watched her most of the day there and I could see that sparkle in her eye's that she had lost when it came to softball. She had that grin from ear to ear when we left and went to her team practice after the camp. I can say for the first time since early April she was excited to go to practice and wanted to get out and work with her team. That was until her coach showed up (late again) and shouted out "why are you wearing a game jersey?"
I could just see the excitement and joy of being there gone. Her energy level dropped and she was just there. We know that we will be leaving this team in a few weeks (season over) but I am looking for a way to make softball fun for her again with this team. I want her to be excited to practice and play again!
Any tips out there?
