competitive little kid sports

I am now coaching/assistant coaching a 5th grade tackle football team, 7u girls basketball team, and 11u travel baseball team. I had one season to be a fan and I just rough ridin' blew it because I can't say no.

Sounds more like a kid who grew up idolizing the Royals not the Astros

To be fair I feel like the immersive brand of cheating the astros used would be hard to replicate in little kid baseball.

You're a glutton for punishment (not that the coaching itself sucks, it's the PITA parents)

In my experience assistant coaching enjoyment-to-frustration ratio is 80/20 head coach to parents. It’s obv all how you handle whatever comes your way tho.
