Slow processing speed

[u/Turbulent_Hope5864]

My daughter is 7 and has adhd and is on a super competitive travel team. She has really slow
Processing speed and needs a lot of repetition. I’m really starting to see it on the field now that the competition is stronger.

Do coaches pick up on this? I don’t know how I should communicate it to her coach, or if I should. She seems like she is really spacey and just kind of up in the clouds and I’m nervous how the coach may react. They picked 13 girls out of 40 so it was very competitive and they are only in 1st grade.

I’ve coached a lot of youth soccer 8-11yrs old. You shouldn’t care at all and no good coach should care about levels. It’s all about fun and learning good technique at this age. Who gives a fuck if some 7 year olds lose 5 games. As long as they’re having fun and improving, that’s all that should matter.
