turmoil

What's on your mind?

by jnr311 » Mon Apr 06, 2009 12:48 pm

I am head coach of a 12 u travel team in san jose CA that has some hardcore parents and an organization that does not support the coaching staff. Instead they cater to the parents like it is a rec ball org. We play ASA A ball and we have a great team 34-4 last fall. Now we are a young 12u 97's team and we jumped right in to ASA A ball and we are facing some of the best competiition in the country. well a coach whos daughter always seems to have a problem with somone on the team has left. Now the orginization pres. says that they are forming a new team with him as mentor to the coach that left and they gave everyone a choice on wich team to go to. This is I feel completely unfair and I believe that I have no option but to find another org to call a home this org has been around 17 years and still has no sponsorship to mention and clearly has problems within the organization itself. so I am shopping 5 or 6 great ball players to another org that needs a 12u A ball team.

Hopefully you have a core group of girls that you coached last year that will follow you the new organization. One advise, see if the new organization will give your core girls a discount, that may be a good way to get them to commit. Good luck!

Anyone who follows this guy gets what they deserve....they know what they are getting in to.

So, did you find an organization yet to complete your team? Good Luck!
