Team Drama

This past summer my Club soccer team and I traveled up to Indianaopliss for regionals. We were competing to make it to nationals. Instead of my main coach (Mike) leading us as a team he handed us off to two young coaches that recently graduated college. The two younger coaches favored there own players the whole weekend, and me and some other girls originally on Mike’s team were given hardly any playing time. Its not that the other girls were better then us, its that the coaches are immature and favor there own players over me and some other girls. The first game I played a total of 10 minutes out of a 90 minute game. At the end of the weekend I was pissed. That’s when the drama began.

“You should just quit the team if you don’t like your playing time” said one of the girls that had played lots of minutes that weekend but did not deserve them. our team ended up getting in a fight in the group message, That’s when everything got ugly. Ever sense that weekend, Every girl on the young coaches original team have made it there goal to not pass me the ball. Yesterday we played a friendly game and even though I would be wide open calling for the ball, they would rather lose the ball then pass to me. It has come to the point where if I want to get the ball, I have to run back from forward, defend, win it myself, and dribble up the field. My coaches don’t realize how our teams chemistry is damaged and that its affecting the game and how we play. I Have three tournaments coming up in September and I just hope that our team can work things out and that some of the girls ego’s drop drastically.
