Your coach may very well like you and think you are a great player, but she might want to give the other kids a chance. Your coach is thinking about what is best for the entire team. Just trust her. Let me know how things work out! :) [ koolkid54's advice column | Ask koolkid54 A Question ]

Could you possibly wait around after practise and say, in a pleasant and uncomplaining way that you really want to get better and be able to play in the game so would she mind giving you some pointers and/or constructive criticism about how you could improve? Said in that way it shows both that you're enthusiastic and that you're willing to work hard and take advice and surely that can only be a good thing.
That way she'll either realise that she's been passing you over unjustifiably, will give you some tips about what she wants you to do differently or it will open up discussion about any othr reasons she's keeping you off the field. Whichever, I figure it can only yield good results.
