I am sure this is a good place for opinions. Here is the situation.
I coach a 14U TB team, 5 girls are using a local hitting-pitching
coach. Last week during a game, one of these coaches came to
a game and was counseling his 'students' during the game without
asking me or another coach what protocol is. He also told one of the girls
to 'tune out' what I am coaching regarding hitting, and do what is
instructed at private lessons. Also a couple weeks back, the pitching
coach was at a game, but introduced herself and asked if she could
speak to player between innings.
Since one particular player started hitting lessons last fall,
her average has plummeted 115 points. Overall, only one girl has any
positive results offensively. Personally, I think the pitch coach is ok,
but the hit coach is out of line.
Any suggestions on what my next step should be?? Should I talk to player?
parents?private instructor?all?in what order? Or if player does not conform,
do I cut her loose? She is a good team mate and was a team player until
recent events.
