the problem is the kids don't start to pay for this bad coaching until they get to at least the u/14 age group.
watched a parent coach their own kid in u/10s. for the next 4 years the coaches record with this group was outstanding. 80% of the teams points were scored by 3 players, came 2/3 or 4th in every season at the highest grade of 10's and 12's. was going to be the savior of this under-performing district clubs' juniors
The same coach was continually re-appointed as head coach in that clubs D1 juniors for their kids age groups for the next 6 years. Only won 5-6 games every season against the bottom and second bottom D1 teams, with the same group of players, until in u/18s ( i think) the club nominated in d2 instead of d1 and then had a 50% season 2 out of the 4 seasons.
Very frustrating , was just like watching a train wreck in very very slow motion.
