I'm the HC, The OC, the RB coach, the LB coach, the grounds keeper, the maintenance man, the weightlifting coach, the fundraising coordinator, the crisis manager, the laundry worker, the janitor, the recruiting coordinator, the PR guy, the book keeper, the statistician, the academic advisor, the tutor, the equipment manager, the budget director, the medic, and the taxi cab driver(driving kids home after practices and workouts). Oh, and I almost forgot - I teach five periods of English every day.
How many roles do you guys play and what are they?

I am the head coach. Thats all that matters (large evil grin) and Ill wear every hat that it takes to keep that job. No matter how much they pile on me I am going to stay the head coach as long as I can. I do everything listed above and a bunch of other things. I even write our local newspaper articles after games. I draw the line at being asked to coach other sports though. I cant possibly do that and do justice to the football program.

It is a good question! Associate HC, OC, English Department Chair, Team Leader on an interdisciplinary team, Professional Learning Group Facilitator, Instructor of Education at local college, and Leadership Team member of the HS.
I think the assumption is that coaches are good in other leadership tasks. I bet most of you do more than me!

Where I play we now have only two coaches. Our HC/OL/DL/LB Coach and our WR/DB coach. Our players are left to organise most of everything else. Next year we stand to loose our WR/DB coach, leaving senior player to coach most of the positions. I'm a running back, and basically I just stick with the seniors, but mostly were just used as tackling bags for the LBs.
