Basketball for Kindergarten

So, my 6 year old daughter is playing basketball now. She's in Kindergarten, and i find myself expecting her to "just know" things that have taken years of practice for me to not even think about.

For instance, when she's playing defense, she has a habit of standing EXACTLY where the coaches tell her. But then not moving from that spot at all when the ball comes near her. Same thing for rebounding; she stays in HER spot, and if the ball finds her, then she may try for it.

But, this is her first season playing, and they've had about 10 ten games and 2 practices, so not much can really be complained about. And she's having fun. That's really my main concern.

........Well, that, and making sure she dribbles more than once on her way up the court....
