Would like to hear some suggestions on what others have done in the past with parents that can be negative at times.
Here is my situtation: I'm a asst coach for a team and the head coach has an issue with one of the girls parents ( from what the head coach told me another parent told him that her parents had a issue on how he coaches paractices that the girls do to much standing around)
This girl is by far our best catcher and has a big bat, but instead of the head coach addressing the problem with the parents he sits her on the bench and only lets her catch the tough games until we get out ahead, he continues to have her in the starting line up to hit also. I can see her parents continue to get more aggravated as this continues. I told him I would talk with the parents and workout the issues but he hasn't. I fill for this girl because she doesn't understand what she done wrong and has asked the coach why she is getting as much playing time and his answer to her is "Im just seeing which catcher wants it more"
How would you handle this?
