Coach upset with DD for going to Homecoming

[iMlearning]

Oh, my. Now, I was all for her playing and skipping HC, but this last bit of info is just too much. I would turn in her uniform.

I think you know from our P.m's awhile ago we were really close to at the end of the year. Especially, (and I didn't post this in the "weight" thread) when she was in the hospital he said..."well, at least she's losing weight!" He doesn't think before he speaks and it has caused a lot of problems. DD however loves her teammates, and absolutely loves the AC and wants to stay one more year before she tries out for her "dream" team. She worked her way into the starting 3rd base spot and this other team will be losing their starter at the end of the upcoming season. She wants more field time at 3rd before trying out for them.

How many players do they have? Did she tell coach she will play if they only have 8?

She told me, but not the coach. The coach sent out a text earlier in the week that said we only had 9 for the weekend and to let him know where people were staying. I didn't reply of course, but maybe should have text "home."
He said she was one of the 9.

I love that he asked you about the hotel...in the immortal words of Bugs Bunny..."what a maroon".

Take a picture with your dd holding a softball bat and ball in her homecoming dress and send it to the coach!!! lmao

No home runs this weekend!

Good luck. I am afraid he will make it difficult for her, from here on out, though.

Time for her to try out for that dream team you mentioned.


Makes you wonder what the real goal of attending this showcase is?? Is his DD supposed to get some looks from some coaches?

Double wow!!! If he can't come up with more than 8 not counting your daughter he shouldn't be taking a team anywhere.

WSith his call in mind, I'd be so, so tempted to walk in, give him the double finger salute, and tell him can't wait until we see you on opposite sides of the field. Guys like him are the reason so many people have such poor opinions of youth coaches.

Turns out his DD did contact some schools ( who is a senior.) I also found out that he was able to pick up another player.

Ok, ok. I am on board now.
The one thing I absolutely can't tolerate is a coach that oversteps his bounds and tries to elevate his authority over a parents off the field. He may have had 9 with a pickup but now he should only have 8. Check the dream team out and shop around some. I can't believe with that behavior he has held a team together.
