There are quite a few select coaches that are over the top win at all costs type. Don’t understand how the parents let them scream at their kids and shout them down in front of everyone over minor mistakes, rather than teaching them the right way in a positive manner. Played a Canes team yesterday where the coach was like that - overly intense, mistakes made were life & death…trips to the mound he would be pointing demonstrably at a kid the entire walk, then chewing them out once he got there. Same coach had the game called 8 minutes early to help their seed (our team was up 3, but we had the bases loaded with no outs, so he had it called to prevent more runs from scoring. He could have tried to get out of the inning quickly and we had time for another inning.)
We’ve been lucky to have very good, positive coaches for all but one season. The season that went awry the coach was not retained but it was too late - all but 2 of the kids changed teams.
