    Coaches teach proper fundamentals

    There are huge differences in teams that have proper coaching and those that depend on athletic ability alone. My daughter is very athletic but without proper coaching where does that get her? My deifnition of "elite" is being competitive at the highest level of your age bracket. I personally think she has the capability to be on one of these teams if she receives the proper coaching. #1, 2, and 3 seem to be the consensus of this board and the people I talk to in general. Thanks for the reply.

    beat her with tennis balls. she has to lose her fear of the ball. buy a tennis racket and a few dozen balls. have her field them with no glove and do NOT hit them to her like she is 6 years old.

    then put her a step away from the fence centered between 2 fence polls. stand back from her about 10 feet and roll the balls pretty hard and fast. teach her to slide her feet to stay in front of the ball. dont waste time between balls. the quicker you get them to her the less time she has to think about it.
