After 14U, the kid would tell the coach to STFU and sit down.

10U (and 8U) coaches/parents are WAY worse (in every way) than 16U or 18U.

Since I'm coaching my daughter's 10U team this summer, I take exception to that remark.

But, in general, I completely agree with you. I did have an A$$ of a coach this weekend at a 16U tournament. Not very nice to his kids at all. He approached the line with the umpires, but he knew where it was and never crossed it.

What I expected, past 12&U, not usually that kind of emotion.

Also, read like 6 inning game.
