My daughter's team has a horrible coach who thinks the more he yells and berates them, the better they will do. There is rarely any positive reinforcement. And the more advanced the player, the worse he treats them. All the girls are so afraid to make any mistakes. And forget it if he knows a girl wants to play in college - every time they make a mistake he'll tell them how colleges don't recruit girls like that or I can't believe you think you can play in college. BTW, the team has a losing record, so i guess his tactics don't work. I'd love to say something to him or write a letter to the athletic director but know he would take it out on my daughter. Thank goodness for the club teams.
I'm sure its not want people want to see on this thread that is dedicated to school ball, but school ball is pretty much a joke. Now there are a couple programs and coaches worth a $#!+, but way too many are road kill which is obvious by to 20 something to near nothing scores we see. Pretty much all the school teams that are good is because they have a high content of travel players. But hey, they all have to play school ball.
