Many parents feel their child is one of the best at her position but the coaches believe otherwise.If the coaches thought your daughter would help them win more so than other girls on the team she would have been placed on that team,the coaches want to win.That being relationships with the kids ,parents etc. from the prior years team will naturally have an impact on the coaches choice.


When you have tryouts for a team that has been together, it is very difficult to break in. Unless your daughter is so much better than the girls already on that team the coaches are going to go with who they know. Why break up team chemistry with both players and parents for a player who may not be much better.
