I know it can seem like a long season when you are only at the beginning of June. Been there, done that.
I personally think the advice above from Riseball is some of the best you will receive.
I would not go to the head of the org. I don't think it will serve you or your daughter well.
DD's story...DD was by far the best player on her team least year...she had been with the same coach for 4 years. She was also the youngest player on the team. She worked hard constantly. She was discouraged, frustrated, disappointed, etc. As was I. However, one day she just decided to go out there and be the best she could be, and leave everything on the field. She wasn't playing the position she wanted to play, wasn't seeing any wins, was watching the other girls be more interested in snapchat than practice/games and was completely over the drama and level of disrespect for coaches on her team. But she decided it would serve her best to change HER attitude because that was the only thing she could control. I won't lie - it wasn't all roses from that point on...but she knew that SHE had done the best she could. She decided to change orgs this year and it has been amazing. Maybe she appreciates it more because she knows what she left?
As was mentioned above my guess is that some of the girls who show no initiative will quit ... if not, I would see if your DD "makes" the better team at tryout time, or look for another team/org at that point.
