Only other thing I coach is the adult slow pitch softball team I play on. I would rather deal with 6 year olds sometimes over my friends, they listen better and show up more often. Been down that route!! You know the phone call to say you are missing the game has gone by the wayside!!

No. Its unsportsmanlike and it sends the wrong message to the kids we are responsible for while we are coaching them. Agreed. that is a @@@@@@@@@@@ move

I used to be the head boys track coach. Tried to make it like spring football, but we live in a baseball town, so it was a hard sell. I have been coaching 9th grade girls fastpicth softball the past 2 years, but I don't know if I can handle all the drama anymore. My kids are both in JH now and are both in spring sports, so I think I may be a full time dad next spring, and work on the boat and camper on the side. Girls are much harder to coach than boys. I seems that there is always something up.

There are only 2 types of coaches in this world. Those who have been fired, and those who will be fired. It's the nature of the beast, try not to take it personally...easier said than done I understand, but try. I have lived this. The first time i was ever fired in any job. It didn't come from the HC, it came from the school board. I am still bitter about it. I was fired from both sports. It took me about 9-10 months to get over it completely. My first year coaching after was a little hard, I was not myself.

If so which one(s)?
I coach wrestling (MS and HS).
I think the two go hand in hand for just about every position.

PRIDE

This is an old idea - can't remember where I first heard it - but we dust it off about every 4 years. PRIDE helmet stickers or PRIDE T-shirts. P = Personal R = Responsibility I = In D = Daily E = Effort The idea is to encourage / reward them when the kids show signs of "buy in. " Could be for hustle, execution, grades, behavior, or ... Not the Be All - End All, but it works... IF YOU have PRIDE in your job as the Head Coach! I use this. It is a mantra of mine.

I liked Young, he combined mobility and the arm, Elway as well. It all depends on your defenition of mobile. Is it some one who runs for a great deal of yardage(Vick, Cunningham) or someone who scrambles around and launches it down field (Mcnabb) or some one who moves in side pocket ( Marino, Montana)
