Player in twilight zone

I AGREE WITH YOU, I MISREAD THE ORIGINAL POSTING IN THIS THREAD...
I do not feel I was not trying to generalize (lump all coaches into an evil category)... Sorry if it read that way.

I do not doubt you are doing the right thing... I am still open to SUGGESTIONS of getting parents "on board"...

FYI: I have coached a variety of sports teams at the lower levels (Kindergarten thru 7th Grade). I have found a brief "newsletter", at the start of the season, communicating my goals, objectives, and stressing sportsmanship has worked well.
