A catcher, she is behind the plate two games out of three on Saturdays, and usually every game on Sunday. She bats 1st, sometimes 2nd. She says she knows people tell her she is a solid player, but in her mind she isn't. At times she gets so down on herself, if she makes a few mistakes (even during practice), that she should quit TB and play rec ball. Most of the time she wishes she was playing in more competitive situations, but these down moments drag her so deep.
I don't know what to say or suggest to her. Her batting coach tells her she just needs to get more game time in to boost her self-confidence, but she says to me that advice means nothing to her. Any ideas?
