Or should I say something? I was watching some of Olivia's practice this morning. I was getting a little frustrated with her. The way our gym works, the level 5's and 6's work out together. Olivia is a level 6. Well, they were working on tumbling passes. Her back handsprings are getting longer and quicker which is good, but she started the fear thing with the back tuck. She did one but that was it. That's not what concerns me. The other 4 level 6's all have their back tucks, even have 2 BHS-back tuck. So they all got to move on to do some layouts from a trampoline into the pit. Looked like fun. I could see the disappointment in Olivia's face when they got to move on to something else but she had to stay behind with the level 5's and do drills on the floor. I don't know if it was because her other teammates moved on or what but she was out there looking like she could care less. She put little to no effort into any of the stations she was working on. She did when the coaches came to work with her, but she was majorly slacking off when they didn't. I want to say something to her about it, like I'm not paying for you to play around when you should be working. I know, she's only 8, soon to be 9, but it's bugging me. Any advice? TIA!
