My advice is this:
1. It's not how things start. It's how they end. If your daughter has the talent, it will work out. Didn't Michael Jordon get cut from his basketball team at one point? If she is new to the school, those things happen. Coaches go with what they know. Next year they will know her.
2. The further along the athletic path, or any path for that matter, you have less and less control over what happens and as a parent you can't fight her fight. I think most parents face something like this in one way or the other. In the end, as hard as it seems now, not making the 9th grade volleyball team is small beans. Refer back to point 1.
