[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op, I know kind of the reverse. Dad barely played his son and chose son's best friend to keep him company on the bench. I think the coach not playing his son was to teach him a lesson, or something. Or son was never that interested. Dad really wanted to coach. Son didn't want to play. Our son worked-around this by pushing to be goalie, which the team needed, and no one wanted that position. DS didn't like being goalie but at least the coach put him in.

Change teams next time. We never let one particular sport become so important. Change sports.  We did rec teams only.[/quote]

I should clarify - there were two different teams, two seasons in a row. Different coaches, same attitude. We left VLL after that experience.[/quote]

You could've volunteered to coach the next season. [/quote]

People vie to become coaches at this age in VLL. It’s a coveted position. To restate, each team had FOUR coaches already. We had no “hook” to become a main coach, so we helped out where we could. [/quote]
