[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hell, if I witnessed the behavior, I wouldn't bother the coach.  I'd tell the kids to pay attention right then and there.  Why wouldn't you?  [/quote]

Because YOU DO NOT SPEAK TO CHILDREN DURING PRACTICE.  THAT IS THE COACH'S JOB.

You can yank your own kid if your own kid is a problem.

In fact, if your own kid is a problem, ask the coach if he's worse or better when you are present, and then act accordingly.[/quote]

Calm down, Muffy.  No need to yell.

I've never heard there's a rule that you can't speak to 9 year olds goofing off during a REC practice?  I've done it sports practice, at Cub Scouts and at school when a teacher wasn't available/around/engaged in something else.   If those kids are interfering with those wishing to be coached or listen, I'll speak up.  If the coach has got a problem with it, I'd be happy to get the feedback - but the coach will then get some of mine.  [/quote]

Whoa.  I'm just trying to figure the scene here.  A dozen 9 year old boys, two daddy coaches, and ten parents on the sideline watching/chatting.  My kid is goofing around and you think its okay to yell at my kid from the sidelines?  Fuck you.

Talk to the coach between practices and offer to help.  If he/she agrees, then ask specifically what they want you to do.  But don't overstep boundaries.  What you'rr suggesting is way over the line.  You sound like an obnoxious asshole.

Seriously, if you can do a better job, then get off your ass and volunteer your time to coach a dozen 10 year olds.  Otherwise, continue sitting on the sidelines and keep your mouth shut.[/quote]
