Hi ;

One possibility would be " Meralgia paresthetica " :

http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/meralgia-paresthetica/DS00914

" Meralgia paresthetica is a condition characterized by tingling,

numbness and burning pain in the outer part of your thigh. The cause

of meralgia paresthetica is compression of a nerve — the lateral

femoral cutaneous nerve — that supplies sensation to the skin surface

of your upper leg. "

Symptoms " commonly occur only on one side of your body and may

intensify after walking or standing " .

I'm guessing that it could be due to a nerve injury related to your

daughter's volleyball activity?

Best regards,
