OOoo they are great!, you sit them all down at the beginning of each season explain how your going to teach their kid and what your stance is towards wining and losing, ask for volunteers to help with certain (small things) and they think it great everyone gets to play and unfortunately no one has anytime to volunteer and later in the season I’ get email and call’s telling me who needs to sit down and which kid to play, etc. Again I ask / invite them to participate in practices but again they are just too busy.. Then you have the parents of one team wanting to fight over a stupid call with the kids of other parents WTF!! (that really shows the kids what it’s like to be an adult) Etc, etc, etc..
I can go on for hours, but I'm not here to discourage any and all newbie AYSO coaches..

I'm here to
help you and kids get off on the right start 
at the right price..
So who up for it ??
