Originally posted by Unregistered View PostTBU has a parent coaching both their Pre-ECNL and a ECNL team. If a Dad or Mom were long time coaches at a certain age group and their kid just happens to pass through I think that is probably OK. When the parent coach follows the kid year after year that can not be so good not just for the kid, but also the other kids who also end up with the same coach year after year.

I could not agree with you more. If the coach is only in it for his own kids, this cannot be good for the other kids.

Originally posted by Unregistered View PostClubs should hire the coaches they deem most qualified, parents or not. What they should not do is have parents coach their own kids. Someone said the politics isn't worth it and I totally agree. Reality is there are some nut job parents out there - if they think their kid is being slighted in the least (real or just perceived) they'll blame it on coach favoritism. If the coach will only coach his/her kid's team then hire someone else.

Not anyone should coach their own kid, period.

GK and DSB are probably quality coaches but all things being equal I would rather my kid not play for a parent coach. Especially at the ECNL level with that much time and money invested it would not be worth taking a chance on possible drama. This also is both of theirs first year at a club like TBU so it will put it to the test more than the small clubs they came from.

You are referring to the one and only coach who can coach his kids. He is the best coach in central Florida and no other coach compares. We were spoiled and I have to remind muskeg not to expect the same from other coaches (daddy or not)

We've got crap now. Grass is greener......
