We had a guy here locally several years ago that was an umpire with our association and a coach with a local HS and travel team.

The problem was that when he was coaching, he tried to umpire and when he was umpiring he tried to coach. In my opinion, he wasn't that good at either one.

I finally had a sit-down with him and told him that he really needed to pick one side or the other and concentrate on that. He decided to stick to coaching and has actually done quite well with it. He is been offered and accepted a position coaching a club level team in Eastern Europe.
