Yes definitely they are out there. When you find one treat them nicely. The better ones do it out of kindness and caring for the team, not to further their kid's situation.
Even better bet is to at a club that doesn't use them at all. Well run or bigger clubs usually have at least one staff member who does schedules, hotel's etc. Makes a huge difference

That is an issue with you club not setting rules. Daddy ball sucks to begin with but in rare cases it turns out ok. If you are unhappy with the job your manager does, then its your responsibility to discuss it in a team setting, politely if possible.

Originally posted by Unregistered View PostManager wouldn't be in the collection business if parents paid what and when they are supposed to. As far as bookkeeping, every club should have a high level view of the funds that come in and go out for a team. The manager should have more detailed accounting broken down by player and sent to the parents monthly.

The difficult part is getting all the parents to pay their team fees on time. When a payment plan is based on when funds are needed and parents are late the team is in trouble. When payments are higher in the beginning of the season to (to accommodate late parents based on experience) everyone complains. Everyone has a good excuse, but other bills get paid. The team manager should not have to put their relationship with the other parents at risk - this should be a club issue from the beginning.

Originally posted by Unregistered View PostYes. If the head coach, in consultation with the DOC, decides on league and tournament play, the team manager then creates a monthly budget and the parents then make those monthly payments timely, there will be no need for collection. However, the club should always monitor all team funds, those funds must be deposited into a club account, making use of the club's federal identification number, and team expense checks should always be requested from and issued by the club. A team manager should never be placed in a position to issue checks or make use of his or her own personal or business accounts.
