Do you think clubs should only be run and managed by volunteers? Most clubs' managers are coaches as well. Coupled together, they could be full time jobs. What an ED or DOC earns is driven by the size of the club. Most clubs are in the $200K-$300K range. They aren't going to be paid much with those revenues. There are only a few in the $2MM range. A organization that size needs professional management. Whether you would be happy with the managers is not the issue.
Coaches with playing experience and who have obtained licenses are worthy of being paid. If you are unhappy with the coach, go play somewhere else. There are plenty of clubs that use "volunteer" coaches. Some may not even be parents. I think if a coach has the proper qualifications, then they should be paid. Parent coaches should not be paid.
