I had a coach for a Grade 9 boys team tell me at the pre-game meeting he would have no Captain for the game. I aske who will speak on your behalf should there be any questions. His reply was "No one speaks on my behalf". Before the end of the meeting I made him give me a number of a player who I could go to should I needa message passed to the team, he did comply withmy request, btw.
Funny thing is, mid way through the second half during a TO the assistant for the team starts to walk out on the floor to talk to me. I give him the stop sign and tell him I will come over but you are not to be on the floor. Just a note, the game was going great and I had no reason to presume he was going to do anything but ask a question. He starts to complain about the posts pushing his team down low. I immediately started walking away and said, This is why you need a Captain to bring these iisues to my attention! He was stunned and never said another word to me the rest of the game. His team lost by 15 and both he and the head coach came to me and my partner after thanking us for a professional job. I am wondering though, does the head coach have to identify a team captain?
