There is political bias by nearly all parent coaches for their kids and their "crews".
There is political bias by directors and coaches for kid from programs with which they are affiliated.
Team, playing time, and position is NOT 100% merit based.
Most (probably all) parents (including parent coaches) think that their princess is better than they are.
Most kids are on the right team.
Winning is the most important thing to the club, but on a squad of 25 girls, 1 or 2 8's on a team of 10's isn't going to make a difference.
It will to the poor girl thats a 10 playing on a team of 7's , because a 7's dad is coaching the 10 team. But i guess that does no matter because she's not your daughter
First of all there is NO team with all 10's! If your daughter(who was obviously snubbed) was a 10 she would be moved. She is probably an *, so if the coaches daughter is a 7 and your daughter is an 8 and she is on the second team, so be it. Maybe you should coach. Thing is, she is probably better off being an 8 on the second team, rather than stting on the bench with 9's and 10's.
I bet your the coach and you know you stole a spot t from a better player , without you your daughter probably wouldn't be able to make a spot on green. And I don't have to coach to have my daughter play on blue . because unlike your daughter, my daughter deserves to be there.
I am not a coach. I just call it as I see it. It doesn't matter how good your daughter or my daughter is. BTW if you look at the blue teams there are only 2 parent coaches and their daughtrs are excellent, so they didn't steal anything from any kid!
Actually I can think of at lease 3 blue parent coaches. At least one kid does not belong. As far as politics, it's so evident it's ridiculous but if you are not happy you have the option to leave.
