Pressure? In a scrimmage???Well, now I have to jump in and say .... NEVERMIND. LOL IMO, have the player talk with the HC and ask if she can get some time in the circle on JV. If not, then take your dd off of the team.
I probably should not add this. I had a situation this fall where one young lady thought that she was V. She could not make plays when I put her into the game. She asked if she could pitch on the JV. Heck yes. This was her way of wanting to get time in the circle and show me that she was V. We have scrimmages that are sometimes 2 or 3 innings but with situations like having a runner on 1st or runner on 2nd, ... In these scrimmages, she would not throw a strike. Her parents were upset that I put so much pressure on her. Heck, I didn't at all. Her parents had her quit. I don't know what she gained since she was getting to play on the JV but more power to them. I hope that she is happy without the pressure I was putting on her.
