And nothing drives us more crazy than not knowing how to help our girls. We take pride in learning the latest drills and skills. We work really hard trying to get to know every player and what they need as individuals in order to succeed. Sometimes though, we don&#8217;t have an answer.<br />\r\nEven reading that just now probably made you uncomfortable, right? You&#8217;re not alone.
