I was so intrigued by this I went and talked to our baseball coach. He said it's the norm. If guys are speaking on skills, they'll wear the uniform, if it's about culture or development, not as much, but then he said some guys just wear them to fit in. He also said he loves to wear his. Not necessarily at clinics and what not, but in general. And if you think about it.. especially if they don't wear the high socks look, its basically just sweatpants with pin stripes Yeah... a couple of guys would bring their fungo, and use it as a pointer for their power point presentation. back when I coached baseball, I just used a wooden Rawlings Adirondack as my fungo. It's now in my classroom and it's my map pointer.

Do wrestling coaches wear singlets at wrestling clinics??? I know wrestling coaches who wear wrestling shoes all the time. But I don't think there is anything wrong or goofy about that. I wear tennis shoes all the time so what is the difference really.

Do wrestling coaches wear singlets at wrestling clinics??? There aren’t many wrestling clinics unless that’s changed since I’ve been out the last 10 years. I would imagine if you’re going to be practicing moves you’d be wearing shorts and a tee. That seems to be standard wrestling coaching practice attire.

I believe in dressing for success. You may have seen me at one of the Missouri clinics. Top hat and tails...

Its because a large handful of baseball managers back in the day were player/managers. I think it just kinda stuck from there. And y'all have convinced me to update my clinic attire, here goes: Revo speed with tinted visor shoulder pads, mesh practice jersey tied up in front and backplate showing size M athletic shorts when I really need an XL #quadz white nike elite socks white cleats I once asked this to a baseball coach and he said it's because baseball is the only sport where the coaches are actually on the field of play. He got very offended by it too. I think it's super weird. This has always been the reasoning given all the way up to the majors....although Connie Mack always wore a suit, and most managers now just wear a jacket or pullover.

can of dip, maybe something to spit into, snickers wrapper so you can leave it under your seat, cell phone ringer turned to 11 This is key, the little cups they provide in the back of the room with the water coolers aren't adequate.
