Yeah, first talk to her and see if she can articulate what she feels is

She is pretty down-trodden and a bit confused maybe. She doesn't want
to play any more.

But if this just doesn't work out, don't push it too much further.

I didn't. I think I did a pretty good job, lol.

Where you perhaps *could* have done a better job is on the research side of
things, before signing up. A friend of mine has 5 children, all with varying
degrees of physical impairment. They are all in organised sport, but she
looked long and hard to find teams and coaches that were a good fit -- people
that really did believe that it doesn't matter if you win or lose, it's how
you play the game. People who were inclusive and welcoming and who knew the
game and how to teach the skills. Your coach's attitude sounds like
incompetence to me.
