My husband has volunteered (baseball/softball/tennis/ soccer/basketball)--we both do all we are allowed to do, but my husband was told last night if he didn't like the way things were done he was not needed. Asking questions did not set well.
In eight years of various sports teams, we have never experienced anything like this situation. We don't believe it is good to encourage quitting, but it is important for our children to benefit from the experience--fall season only lasts about three more weeks--maybe that is the answer??
From some of your comments and what we have researched ourselves, it seems that coaches do have flexibilities as to how they run their teams, but that this coach is doing something quite unusual. And he is an inexperienced coach wanting to showcase his "talented" son.
Thanks for your comments--We will continue to check for additional advice.
