[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Travel coach here, Not saying we are perfect by any means. As a paid coach we are paid to coach your kids. Please understand from the time your kid arrives until they leave. They should be under our direction only. When parents scream out instructions from the sideline your doing nothing more than hindering your teams progress. Leave it us to coach please. Did you ever think we may be watching your kid develop and think out the correct soccer play on their own without shouting instructions constantly. Youth soccer at any and all levels is about developing the athlete and team to be the best they can be , get the most out of their talent. When we have some clueless parent (most are clueless even when they think they know the game) screaming instructions out to players it just clouds the development. We would rather you just sit back enjoy your childs game as a proud parent not an extra coach. Ive banned more than a few parents from games and even training sessions for overstepping their boundaries . Im happy you want to be a part of your childs life. If you want to coach them volunteer at the rec level or take time to get your coaching license apply to coach at an academy and bring you child with you. Just remember nobody is perfect and please don't disrupt your childs soccer experience.[/quote]

I remember this dad did quite a bit of coaching from the sideline on my son's team.  I think it was U10.  The coach asked him to relax and he told the coach, "I pay too much G-- D--n money for my kid to play soccer and not be coached.  If you aren't going to do it. I'm going to."  The coach just walked away. It was awesome. : )[/quote]

I hope that kid was cut before U11 started. I can't stand especially U9 and U10 parents that come from rec programs. They all seem to think they are gonna be the assistant coach. Or they all want to set up snacks for post games and trophies at the end of the year. [/quote]

Where else would u9 kids come from but u8 rec programs? [/quote]
