[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My god!! When does it stop?!

My oldest is U16, youngest U13.  We suffered at some Clubs where the parents currying favor were at insane levels.

It hasn’t stopped.  Both teams have a dad that has self-appointed him assistant coach and in charge of the Coach’s refreshments—-even handing them out during the game.

We arrived early to the U13 game where “Coach” dad was giving real Coacj his assessment of the team and how they play and where kids should play.  Of course, with his kid (not even a top 5-8 player on team) as starring role.

And this sh@t actually works.  Kid starts every game—though usually pulled out after 15 min for better player that plays rest of game.  But it does a psych # on kids when they see these kids with kiss @ss dads be the 1 player to move up or start on first team even when they aren’t one of the top players.

It is less so on elite teams—but to my dismay it still happens.

Makes me laugh too since so many of these dads never played the game or did so at a low level.  I have to sit here as a D1, National club team player, Gatorade state player and bite my tongue.

I’m not paying $3k/year for my kid to be coached by dipsh@t Coach dad.[/quote]

I agree that is annoying to put it mildly. So are you going to move clubs or step forward anc coach/lead a team yourself or offer to assistant coach too? Not so that you can repeat the behavior you’re seeing but because you seem sensible and could keep the other douche in check. What have you got to lose?[/quote]
