My DD's team is full of issues for me.
A coach who is, simply put, a moron that would ruin the program if it weren't for a few good men, including myself, helping to hold it together. The guy dislikes me and plays passive - aggressive games, such as not answering my phone calls, text messages, and generally not speaking to me at the games or practices unless I approach him directly. This has had a direct impact on how efficient and organized our Travel Ball program is viewed.
Now we've had our differences but I've put them to the side for the greater good of the girls and the program. I believe that he has said some things to a parent that I shared with him - in his typical passive-aggresive attempt to run me out of the program. This is now causing uneasy relationships for me in the bleachers.
This is a team that, without a doubt, would not exist had it not been for my initial organizing, planning, and work. But now I find myself surrounded by multiple people that I don't want to spend a summer hanging out with and a coach who has carved a space out that I cannot remove him from.
I've done a good job keeping the majority of this from my DD but I am eff'ing done - which means my DD is to. I will hang in there thru mid-August and that's it. There is no way I can subject myself to this beyond this summer.
Any words of advice or wisdom - I am all ears.
