New to the board but I need some advice on what to do.
I'm an assistant coach on a pee wee team. I don't have a child on the team I just like teaching the game. Our head coach fails to plan for anything or teach individual fundamentals. I have tried to run drills and create practice plans to set us up to be successful but he chooses not to run them. We have horrible fundamentals and practice habits. We can't hold onto the ball or deliver a handoff because we never practice these things. We have a first string only, if someone gets hurt there is no backup plan we have to adjust during the game.
On top of this we have no schedule of when games are going to be played and I'm just unbelievably frustrated with the entire experience. I've always been told support your head coach but if I was a parent I would be livid at the lack of technique we have 6 weeks in. I'm allowed to make almost zero impact on the team no matter what I try. It's getting to be a waste of my time and I don't want to desert the kids.
What do I do to get this straightened out? We are 1-3 and should be 4-0. There is an executive director of the league but he and the coach have worked together for 15 years. I don't think that's the right tree to bark up. I've talked to the coach in every way I can think of and it's just not working. any advice would be helpful.
