[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Stupid question!! You all must be bored. The answer anyway is Absolutely the manager kids get preference. [/quote]
I believe the original OP  started this thread because the managers kid is probably a better player then his/hers kid.  I was a team manager when my DS and DD played for a well known soccer club.  My motive for VOLUNTEERING as a team manager was not to get my kids preferential treatment from the coaches, but to help facilitate a positive environment, as to where the parents got along and the kids were happy.  I can say neither of my kids received any type of preferential treatment from the coaches or the club.  They had to practice just as hard  as the other kids, they attended every practice, and I didn't see the coaches treating or acting any differently toward my kids.  There were some games my DC started; some games where they were 2nd or 3rd string and some some games where they didn't get a lot of playing time.  However, I do believe there are players who receive preferable treatment.   When DD started playing for the top team in the club, we had  players who would constantly miss practices  and  not only started the games, but played the whole game.  So, in my opinion (and experience) team managers DC's do not receive preferable treatment...at least my kids didn't. [/quote]
