So true... Years ago parents would not dare to talk to the HS coach. To allow parents to get involved with HS athletics is contributing to the dimise of High School sports. This is the reason new travel programs are popping up every year. Parents are looking for a more even playing field for there kid. What ever happened to the days when kids were evaluated on the field.

If you feel your kid is good enough you need to do what is best for them. The truth of the matter is, that unless your school is one of the top programs, nobody is coming to recruit from your school. The coach is going to look out for their buddies are make recommendations for them and not necessarily the kids who deserve it.
