Keep up on the little things, the basics. Even if you think they know them, or if they do know them. Because they've probably only known them for months. You've known things like "gotta get back on a caught fly ball with one out" for probably decades. They haven't.Any advice on in-game coaching with 10u? Anything anyone keeps up with? Any mental reminders for a coach? Rules to keep in mind? Do’s and don’ts? Strategies to stay ahead?
Not an "in-game" situation but rather, after the game keep your after-game comments to the team 5 minutes or less. Even in HS, I had a designated player set a timer and when it went off, I was done. Some coaches think that they are going to change things in that talk that would take hours of practice time to change. In that "talk" start and end with positive comments.
I fixed it.No parents NEAR the dugout.
