When success shows up,
Dont change it!
Yet some coaches cant help themselves....
How many have encountered this....
IN TRAVEL BALL .
A successful athlete shows up for a tryout.
Say Coach doesnt know the player.
Player proceeds to show there skills.
Glove work
Footwork
Hitting
Pitching
Catching
Suddenly
Off the bucket comes the coach....
Pulls player aside.
To tell them what their doing is wrong....
And do it this way....
Hmmmm?
The player showed up with success!
Watched coaches do this to players i dont know. Yet can clearly see their talent.
Have had talented young players encounter this. Even top tier D1 talent encounter this. Coaches who had no clue the athlete already recruited by top D1 schools....looking at the coach. Respectfully listening....not going to change a thing.
Walking away from the day of softball saying...
"Uhh No, not changing!"
This may sound arrogant
However...simply said,
If your kid is successful...
Why is it some coaches
Say "Hurray talent"
And another coach blind?
Whats the deal with coaches that do this?
Thought to let the viewpoints here on DFP handle this conundrum.
