[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Keep your mouth shut on the sidelines. Always. That’s pretty much it.[/quote] One season I was the rec “practice coach” No one could sign up as coach, and I could for weekday practices but not for games (had another player AND a work conflict occasionally on weekends). Another parent signed up to be the head coach, and was only available for weekend games. Not for practice. So, I actually knew the kids, their names, their personalities and skills. It was awkward bc they needed sidelines coaching, and the head coach wasn’t doing it at all. Without that help, the boys were lost as well as getting crushed. I wasn’t allowed coaches side… so I coached as best I could from the side. Again, the head coach didn’t even know names!! It made for some awkward sidelines. I’m sure the parents or grandparents, or other team, who didn’t know thought I was INSANE for how much talking and direct coaching I was doing. :):)[/quote]
