    WE need more female coaches~

    Several post mentioned there may not be that many women that last in coaching. I think some women coaches may decide to leave because of the unequal treatment that they can receive at some schools. My wife has been the Head Softball coach at her school for 3 years. She was assistant one year...

    Senior Season Cut Short

    My daughter will be a senior this year in high school and we saw the effects on the seniors last year. Not just athletics but missed prom and graduation as well. People may make light of it but I worry about the long term impact on kids that seem to be getting more fragile every year anyway...

    I’m in Texas. DD is an 03 that will be a senior this year. My wife is the High School coach and they made it to the State Semi-Final my daughters sophomore season.

    We have played 1 tournament in Louisiana and two tournaments in Texas. Each one was completely full with a long waiting list. Is that what other areas across the country are experiencing as well?
