A “team mom” can be a valuable resource to you. Although, I would suggest naming that person (mom or dad) your “off-field team manager” and making that officially known to your whole team, just like they know your assistant coaches. You also make sure this person doesn’t go rogue, meaning you set defined boundaries for their responsibilities and you need to approve the activities this person is setting up. You can NOT just say “knock yourself out” and then get butt-hurt when they do something you don’t like.
A better name is the Team Admin. That is what I use. And you're right about making sure they are someone you trust.
