  1. omg...i am in the exact same situation!!!

    basically, you just got to live with it...is the daughter okay, though? my coach's daughter is really nice, and only a little show-offy. Respect her, after all she is your coach. if it will make you feel better, you can badmouth her-but only to yourself. don't try to get others caught between this--although they may feel the same way, don't try to basically "bring down" your coach that way


  2. Submit to the criticism. Everyone has areas to improve in. To suggest that you are not doing things wrong ever is foolish. Is there anything in your coache's criticism that is going to make you a worse volleyball player?

    It doesn't matter what your coach says. In High School, confrontation is your enemy. Who cares if the coache's daughter can't do wrong. If she is never criticized, she will never improve. The people who really count will ultimately see through what's happening and if you are doing your best, and always trying to improve, you'll win in the end.

    I agree that criticism is negative and improvement through positive re-enforcement can go so much further in encouraging people to do better, but, "it is what it is" and if you keep feeling bad about it, you'll be the one who'll lose.

  3. be friendly, take the high road. try to have fun, its a sport not a senate debate.

  4. Curl your fist and punch her

  5. confront her and if its a school volley ball team then even better

    complain to the superiors (coaches boss) that shes been mistreating u but u need a few ppl as proof which the admin would need

  6. Just do whatever she says perfectly, if you end up losing it will be because of her.

  7. I THINK DAT U SUD TOTALLY IGNORE WAT ANY ONE SAY AND DO UR BEST. CUZ IT DONT MATTER WAT THEY SAY R THINK, THE ONLY THINGS THAT MATTERS IS WAT U THINK. SO DO UR BEST N WIN SOME GAMES!!!

  8. I hate it when they do that..

    well if it is a school team you could either confront her..

    or talk to your athletic director..

    It may help if you get other girls from the team to back you up..

    that really wakes people up when there is a group.

    good luck!!

  9. You always need to be respectful to your coaches, no matter how much you dislike, or can't stand them. Take all of her advice in stride. I know what it feels like to have a coach like that! If she says your doing something wrong, try 10 times harder to get it right. YOU prove HER wrong!

  10. Do your own thing, dont cause problems because then you will get benched.  She will think she is high and mighty just because the coach is her dad, but you will know better!!  Do the best you can, if she makes a comment about you....just let it go...beat her at her own game!!!!

  11. try to do eactly what she says or try to mess her daughter up so it makes u look better than her and if you loose the game cuz she is obsessed with her daughter its her fault not urs

  12. Thats tough. I have a little different scenario though. my math teacher's daughter always has a better grade than anyone else. And im not suggesting any cheating but just work hard and listen to what you coach says but dont always apply it if you did good.
