[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Don't. The only time I did was when my six year old who was a bit of a daisy picker and trash talker got his obligatory stints in the goal. "Coaching" consisted of "Turn around and watch the game", "Don't pull on the net", and The Look/finger point whenever he started acting like goalie meant field coach and sports critic. With a wild team of kinder and first graders, the actual coaches had their hands full on the sidelines. I have seen otyer parents do this at similar ages with similar behavior. But real coaching for a kid that age? No way. Your job is to sit on the sidelines and cheer, whilemletting the coaches coach.[/quote] Right. I'm a rec coach, and I appreciate it when my parents tell kids to *behave*. That's fine. Other than that, "Nice pass, Johnny!" is about the extent of what I want to hear.[/quote]
