The general consensus from what I hear is all things being equal choose the team with no parent coaches. That’s what we’re doing.I’ll take both sides of the coin ...
Truth is, what is best for your kid may not be best for the team. Playing your best position may not be best for the team. If you cannot do what is best for the team by handling those two realities, find another team where you fit better and can be a team player.
Flip side ... in my experience travel/competitive ball has commonly become nothing more than expensive daddy ball. In this area, there are very few “programs” and virtually every team is coached by a parent who got mad at the previous team his/her kid was on.
The thing is I am a very good judge of talent. I focus on the negative 1st. If a girl goes 9 things right I see the one thing she does wrong or needs improvement on. Character flaw I guess.
