its not this site, its the internet.Bashing comes easy on this site.
I agree that this guy has had limited exposure to the coaching world. good read though, I liked the Syracuse article better.
Perhaps he can tell us why our HS softball coach talked a player out of running track to play softball and then sat the player on the bench.(player was a good athlete). (Don't try to explain it, he was trying to get more money into the program, regardless of the effect on the kid.)
our HS coach is not a teacher and was grandfathered in from before they had state regulations regarding coach qualifications.
sure he really does love his team, but he does nothing to improve himself as a coach or learn more about the game. he has some coaching techniques that he has carried over from coaching boys that don't work for girls, especially teenaged girls, that are more hurtfull than anything else, but he doesn't know. our team is not a real team. its mostly a girls club with a handful of players who don't fit in - this is supported by the coach
