I don't know about your sports season but both baseball and softball has ended for us.  How did it go?  Not too bad.  It was our first time experiencing "playoffs" and hopefully not our last.  Now we just have one team party to go and then a short break until basketball starts for my son and possibly a summer softball league for my daughter.   I hope you had a wonderful sports season and a wonderful time being Team Parent.  You can subscribe to our blog at www.bestteamom.com/feed.  Until next season...

First Season Managing Softball

By

Neil Davis

I started coaching softball because I was a little frustrated with the way my daughters' teams were being coached.  My daughter is very good.  She is 8 years old and has developed into a very good pitcher and made the all stars this year.  But because she is good, every season she was being drafted by the new coach because the new coaches get to draft first and was not being drafted by the coaches who have years of experience and are better coaches who teach the skills needed.  While I respect those new coaches for volunteering their time I was still frustrated at their lack of effort.  I did help and coach for two seasons prior to being manager but all my suggestions went unheard, so I finally decided to make the commitment to manager, managing in the 7-8 year old division.

Did You Know?

 

The term "tennis" is thought to derive from the French word tenez, which means "take heed" - a warning from the server to the receiver.
