So this daughter grew up having both parents and two older siblings waiting on her hand and foot.
Y’all have been creating this monster for 15 years.
All that diva shite is cute when they’re 6, not so much when they’re 15
Don’t let the kid cause you and wife to argue. You have to be on the same page.

If she's that disrespectful, then she doesn't need to be playing on any teams anyway. Mom needs to understand that.

If she has to have a phone, get her a flip phone. She'll be embarrassed and your wife can't complain about her needing to be able to communicate. Or, lock down her iPhone - I have gone so far as to delete all apps and put the can't download apps restriction on my difficult child's phone. I say this as a mother who was terrified of the consequences of my teen being cut off from the their peers, versus the co sequences of over stimulation and social media access (worst for teen girls than boys) wrecking their mental health. Share with your wife the recent news that just came out about a court finding social media responsible for the suicide of a fourteen year old girl - first time ever. It was in Europe, but it's my worst fear as a mom imagIned and would have been all the evidence my husband needed to prove to me the negative effects of phone access and how it effects teens - totally filters down down to their attitudes towards parents, teachers, authority in general, when their self confidence and self esteem is rooted in the device they can't bear to be without. Second point - if her coach being able to contact her is so imperative - a conversation with said coach could go a long way. Sitting the bench for being a disrespectful a-hole would have gotten my attention. Good luck

Bust that arse with a belt.

I played sports in HS. Coaches didn’t need to “communicate” or have access to us 24/7.
I was in HS with cell phones (not the ones now)
I dont remember ever being confused on what was going on and I never talked to a single coach on the phone
I almost forget how but everyone just knew what was going on. Everyone always showed up. Always knew the day our games were and where to be. When our practices were schedule out of sync. The days you brought the home stuff to school and the days you brought the away ones.
The times you needed Timmy's mom to drive you home from away

I have never rasied kids but I can tell you from watching my father be absent for my sister 1) you and your wife need to be aligned on this 2) go take a day trip, or a longer trip, with your daughter and bond. It sounds like you two need it. Don't beat her up on the trip.

Mine will be 16 in November. If she wants to think about driving she better have a 3.5+ GPA and be a sweet kid.

Get her one of those basic kids phones that only does text, call and location. How can the wife argue with that?
If you have ATT, you can quickly turn off all their data but maintain sms and cell service. It's free and you can do by number. It won't affect the rest of the family's data.

I’m suspicious of any male coach having the need to text 15 year old girls directly.

He probably looks like this. Maybe this is why she’s lashing out, honestly no joke:

He's a smartass and is not the friendliest kid, but he gets things done and his grades are good.
I never had problems with my older girl. The younger one is 7, so we shall see.

However, if you contacted me and told me you were having issues and needed to take her phone away, I would be happy to send any needed information directly to you and would also be glad to help in any way possible. Talk to the coach, might really be a ally for you here, sometimes we can get help with some things that kids fight parents on.
Definitely not accusing you of this, but what if he’s the actual problem?

Make her life harder than she is making yours. Always be willing to be crazier/meaner than she is.
It isn't easy though, and first thing you have to do is get that wife on the right page.

Honestly I find the coach’s behavior to be very suspicious here, especially if the coach is male.

Say what you mean, and mean what you say
Try not to be all teaching and make sure you are listening. Really listening.
Give her some space. Show her respect.
When she does not return both, time to kick her in the azz. Hard.
Respecting you is not a choice. Keeping her azz is.
