Awesome! Coached several Tball teams, lots of fun.

You got the kid on your team that sits in the field and plays in the dirt?

T-Ball coaching is babysitting. The first few years of kid pitching is much more enjoyable. You get to coach. The kids can someone implement what they learn. They get better. There is nothing more enjoyable than experiencing the joy of the worst kid on the team getting a hit against live pitching and his teammates cheering for him. There is complete pride that probably won't be matched in athletic pursuits for most of the rest of his life.

I went to my little league coach's funeral during the winter. The other coach I see frequently and we still share good memories.

Nathan ate grass in the first game.

Second game, he didnt put it in his mouth, just threw it around....PROGRESS!

this is my first year coaching 11-12 year olds. it took me exactly 1 inning of the first game to be called a motherfucker in front of parents and kids and have a grandparent take his kid out of the dugout and take him home due to lack of playing time. the boy hadnt been to a practice in over 2 weeks, and due to the team having 11 players, he was one of the 2 kids on the bench to start game 1. We told him and his mother that he had to sit this one out, but if he made practice sunday he would play in our next game. she dissolved into tears. in the first inning gramps came over and confronted our coaching staff, stormed off with the kid and confronted the league commish and other league officials where he went on a rampage of cursing and swearing in front of the snack bar, was asked to leave the premises, refused, had the cops called on him and from what i understand had a restraining order filed against him from showing up to any games or be arrested and removed.

all because we had the nerve to ask the players to practice in order to play. game one, inning one. gonna be a fun year!

but it was a hell of a lot more fun as the years went on and the weak players were eliminated and you had kids that at least had basic skills with which to work.

I think she's gonna be more into traditional girls type stuff like .

My daughter likes playing, but its the social aspect and playing with other kids she likes, not sure she has a love of the game. I think she's gonna be more into traditional girls type stuff like ballet as she gets older, so my coaching career might not be that long.
