[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Be happy that it's happening now. There are coaches who will quit a week into the season, leaving an entire team with next to no option but a random parent to step up. Happened to our challenge team last year with no notice when our coach left us high and dry to go to a travel team after a few practices in August. Everyone was shocked and pissed; but what can you do? You can't make someone stay and coach.[/quote]

I think the bigger issue is finding good coaches given that this is such a thankless job. Most parents are grateful to volunteer coaches. Some are not but most do appreciate their sacrifice. It’s CYA directors and coordinators that treat coaches like they are their personal employees and treat them like cattle. Heck we’ve all heard the story of one CYA coordinator threatening to call the cops on a coach simply because a team parent was filming their games. I’m sure that coach left after being treated like a criminal. These coordinators need to get a grip on themselves. They are out of control. [/quote]
