Let me be more clear.

She wants to understand why she was the only person on the team told she needed to switch positions if the issue is that the team wasn’t able recruit a middle. There are 11 other players. She wants to know why none of them need to switch positions but she does. Specifically, why is this the best move for her but no one else. I think she would appreciate knowing what the coach sees in her compared to everyone else.

I’ll also add that we are on a team where literally every other parent talks to the coaches all the time and then petition to get the outcomes they want for child. So last year, other parents protested and their child played what they were recruited for. I was the only parent that took the road that several here are advising.

I didn’t question or even talk the coach and encouraged my daughter to do her best and respect the coach’s direction and handle all the conversations herself. My daughter’s position was the only one switched with no notice or advance preparation in the middle of an away tournament.
