I did it! I did it!

At last someone else has had to fly solo!!
I am glad I am not the only one with that experience this year! I was like you, tried to have tight riens early and often. Any player gave me lip got whacked. After about the first 5 min. everyone got into a flow and was pretty easy there. I only had one parent give me grief. Kept telling me I missed one. I asked the coach to have the guy yell out when I called one he missed! Coach laughed and told the parent at half time.
Sounds like you did a great job.
