Ouch, yes. And all the additional BS excuses that come if you dare question it.

When coach benches a lower level player for mistakes but allows the stars to make all the mental and physical errors with no consequence

this is accurate AF - add in when the coach yells at a player for a mistake, but when his favorite players repeatedly do the same thing, the coach calls them over to the sidleine for instruction

When the coach has a team meeting and explains how things are going to go only to reverse course and do the exact opposite

When a coach allows players to miss a week or two of practice but still play an entire game

When a coach asks for tournament fees for the year up front after tuition has been paid

When you have 5 coaches on the side lines but not a single one can record the game even though the camera is setup and 10ft from them

When the coach does absolute minimum

[Guest]

When you pay $2-4k and the coach repeatedly cancels practice but makes no attempt to make it up.

When the coach has no idea who your kid is.
1. Mistakes them for a player who is very bad.
2. Gives them an evaluation that is so generic it could apply to anyone. Lacks specifics
3. player evaluation lists positions played your kid never played. Not even one minute.
3. Coach finally lets your kid play a full game at the last game of the year and they score several goals.

When parents start excluding kids from parties & play dates based on popularity. Way to bully little kids & crush team spirit douche bags!

[Guest]

When coach allows parents to call and make lineup & roster suggestions for other people's kids. That is not a good thing.
