[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If the pool of coaches are coming from the pool of former players, wouldn’t the discrepancy of male-to-female ratio be consistent?

I would think every club has more boys teams than girls teams. There are more pro men’s teams than women’s teams. Meaning, starting from the younger ages all the way to the pros, there are just much more males than females in this sport. Isn’t this the more likely scenario (than men’s network including only men, or hiring preference of men, or players unwilling to play for a female coach, or parents holding female coaches to a different standard, or whatever other conspiracy theories people bring up)?[/quote]

Clubs actually boast when they hire female coaches. There’s an incentive for it.  The only answer for the shortage would be they are not applying for these positions. [/quote]

Does a good hiring manager sit back and wait to see what resumes roll in, or do they reach out to their networks when they have an opening?

Hmmm, I wonder what best practice would be?[/quote]
