[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Went through this a few months ago with my U12 son. Verbally abusive coach that we had endured for too long. We ended up quitting travel soccer because this coach made my son hate soccer.
Example: coach screamed at my son in front of team immediately following a game, blaming him for the loss. MY SON DIDN'T EVEN PLAY ONE MINUTE IN THE SECOND HALF - and they were tied at half time. So how did he cause them to lose, exactly? This, to a then 10 year old. He later apologized to all the parents, but never to my son.

Your child may be on our child's team. The coach is terrible about fair playing time and I can see him doing this. There was a verbally abusive teammate and the coach just let him say things like that to the teammates and didn't even have him sit out the next game or any consequence. The parents were floored.

If the coach models poor behavior you can see it in the teammates. A few players quit for the spring and I know a few others who were considering it.[/quote]
