My daughter had the best soccer coach imaginable.
It was a city rec league team made up of a bunch of girls who attended the same small private school. There were three girls on the team that had the ability to take themselves to the next level. The rest were there to socialize, mostly. The coach made sure that he taught the fundamentals to all the girls, and he worked to each girl's ability and talent. When his daughter was ready to play in a competitive league, he stopped coaching. He never let anyone know if he cared whether the team won or lost. He smiled and laughed and joked with the players, the parents and the officials through practices and games. He kept all the parents on the sidelines loose. He taught each girl how to play, and how to enjoy playing, even if she couldn't play worth a damn when it was all said and done. The three girls who should have made it are playing JV soccer now. The other girls and their parents remember the four years we all spent together very fondly. My daughter does not play these days, but when she did she played for a great coach. |

DOWN GOES FRAZIER! DOWN GOES FRAZIER!
Followup: I sent both coaches an email last night asking what kind of offensive set they were running, so I could work with them after school when time permits. TinyEvel: In basketball, the numbers typically mean the following.. 1. Point Guard 2. Shooting Guard 3. Small Forward 4. Power Forward 5. Center Hope that helps.

Good luck with that....seriously. I'm in the same mindset as you - don't focus on one individual, try to get the TEAM to succeed.....or at the very least, let everyone have fun and learn the game. Unfortunately, in today's world of parents sacrificing school & education for sports, we are becoming a rare breed.

My daughters are starters. Problem is the 4th grader plays the point and won't pass the ball - she either turns it over when she gets trapped in a corner or she takes bad shots from way outside that 18 feet away off the rim where the trees can't pull in a rebound because they're on the baseline where they're supposed to be.
