Re: Do they know?

Anon
Any coach that will penalize a kid because he wants to go somewhere else next year should not be coaching. How is that a distraction to the team? Its not the kid really making the decision its the parent Don't hold kids accountable for the actions of their parents. Makes me sick to think this is happening.



Then, get your kids out of the sport while you have your health. In fact, get your kid out of sports entirely. Because the lying, cheating and deceit only gets worse.

Was talking to a dad this weekend. His kid was recruited away from one team by another. Given a contract to play at Level A. Was told on numerous occasions over the summer he would be at Level A. Has been at Level B the entire year.

Happened to my kid, too. Signed a contract from a coach fully authorized to extend it that was interested in developing my kid (rare find, right?) It did involve his playing up a year, but that wasn't important, it was the team he coached. GM decided he needed to stay with his birth year because the team would suck worse without him. We left the program in November for another at the next higher level.

Shouldn't penalize the kids? Bah!

Re: Do they know?

Good point! As a coach you have an obligation to develop all players. Do your job, do it every practice and every game and stop the complaining!

Spoken like a true idiot parent. You think i am going waste my time developing your kid to go play elsewhere next year. Get a clue. I will do whats best for my team currently and going forward. If you are not part of the going forward then expect to play when i need you to and thats it. At practice he will run the same drills but i will not spend another minute helping that kid because i can then focus more on the rest that are staying and make sure they get better.

Coach, maybe if you didn't spend most of the year only caring about the star player and the coaches kids then people wouldn't look elsewhere. P.S. Keep your kid out of the box, all coaches kids get the most penalties.

another fool chirping in. Only losing 2 kids and its because one is moving and the other just cant cut it. Staying with the organization and dropping down a team. Keeping the rest and developing winners. so thanks but dont project onto me. You have enough issues already.

Re: Do they know?

I wonder if you're the same TOOL of a coach who berated a 9 year old kid on the ice a few years back, calling him a traitor for leaving, telling him he was a waste of his time, etc. to the point where the kid was in tears. Of course you didn't bother to find out why the kid was leaving, only later did you learn that dad had to close down his business, mom had to take on more hours at work and they couldn't commit to driving 50 minutes each way to the rink since they didn't know what next year would bring so they went to the program 15 minutes from home. Instead you let your bruised ego get in the way and then wondered why he, along with 10 other kids left your team at the end of the season.

Families leave programs for all sorts of reasons, sometimes you are the cause of it and other times it's things out of your control. Whatever the reason, it's never okay to take it out on the player, to stop coaching him, sit him or in anyway punish him. Your problem is with the parents, grow a set and talk to them.

nope not that guy. I dont care if your bender leaves. Thats a choice the family needs to make and if you want to go somewhere else then do so. All i am saying that if you do, dont expect any more commitment out of me or my coaching staff for the rest of the season. Obviously there are extenuating circumstances, like the example above, and if a parent came to me and had to explain this then i obviously would do what i can to help. The problem is most parents dont know how to communicate. more often than no you fools think you know more than the coaches and owners and all the time we laugh at you.

So pretty much you pick and choose your commitment coach, huh. The player made your team this year, the parents overpaid for the product(we all do) and you the tool coach won't finish up your obligation for this year to the player who might go somewhere else next year. You sir are right in order with the youth hockey problem, the owners suck, most of the coaches suck and the parents really suck.

Thanks for the clarification "Claude Julien"...you're a total DBag with your rationale...how much "Coaching" can a "Hockey Dad" provide to a 9 year old kid that he will retain anyways. His hockey future is bleak without your "Coaching"..Get over yourself...its 9 year old hockey you moron. Coaching mentality like you spew is what we need to get rid of at this age.

Claude is a loser much like yourself. Your comment is the perfect example of not knowing crap about hockey. Just for Proof that my "Coaching" will last a lifetime i will use the ADM as an example and considering these people have forgotten more about hockey in one minute than you will ever learn in 100 years i would think i am in the right.

I wonder if you\\\'re the same TOOL of a coach who berated a 9 year old kid on the ice a few years back, calling him a traitor for leaving, telling him he was a waste of his time, etc. to the point where the kid was in tears. Of course you didn\\\'t bother to find out why the kid was leaving, only later did you learn that dad had to close down his business, mom had to take on more hours at work and they couldn\\\'t commit to driving 50 minutes each way to the rink since they didn\\\'t know what next year would bring so they went to the program 15 minutes from home. Instead you let your bruised ego get in the way and then wondered why he, along with 10 other kids left your team at the end of the season.

Families leave programs for all sorts of reasons, sometimes you are the cause of it and other times it\\\'s things out of your control. Whatever the reason, it\\\'s never okay to take it out on the player, to stop coaching him, sit him or in anyway punish him. Your problem is with the parents, grow a set and talk to them.
nope not that guy. I dont care if your bender leaves. Thats a choice the family needs to make and if you want to go somewhere else then do so. All i am saying that if you do, dont expect any more commitment out of me or my coaching staff for the rest of the season. Obviously there are extenuating circumstances, like the example above, and if a parent came to me and had to explain this then i obviously would do what i can to help. The problem is most parents dont know how to communicate. more often than no you fools think you know more than the coaches and owners and all the time we laugh at you.

yes i love the "daddy Coaches" comments. Who else will teach your bender how to play. You parents do a wonderful job of dropping off, picking up , cutting checks and criticizing coaches. To bad you are all losers who cant skate to give your bender the same treatment. Criticize all you want. Fact is my kid is playing for free while playing on the power play, penalty kill and the last 2 minutes of the close games and because of that he will get more exposure than yours. When it does come college time he will have more experience and more connections to get him to the school of his choice whether he plays d1 or d3 or club. And all this while I only have to pay for gear (which i get great discounts) and hotels during his entire youth hockey experience. Seems Like the "daddy" Coaches know a little more than the parents.

You're a Jacka**...only reason your kid is on a team is because of daddy coaching...doing the kid a great service...Probably playing for a town team anyways...wait until the hitting starts and then your bender comes to you saying he just wants to be on the swim team...and Id be willing to bet he isnt going to D1 or even D3...cant hide his lack of talent once he reaches U14...just because he is on the "Powerplay" and on the ice last 2 minutes doesnt mean he is anything special other than a pylon...typical daddy coach...bender first...team second...great teachable moment...glad you dont coach my kid...Moron!!

They know. They know everything.

If the child is an above average player on a team and goes to practice somewhere else in January, the coach will know by the close of business the following day. More likely he will receive a text while the kid is on the ice.

Maybe the reason the guy had to shut down his business is because the family spent 2 hours a day getting their kid to youth hockey practice. Some people set themselves and their kids up to fail. Not saying the kid deserved to be ridiculed, but shouldn't a parent have the sense not to put their kid into a situation that is bound to turn out poorly?

Ummmm, it happens all the time, Jethro. EHF says rules were broken, contract is void, team has no recourse, parents have even LESS recourse.

Because, after all, it\'s youth hockey. Meaning, the league and teams have all the clout.
Yeah, the contract is void and then you sign another one on February 1 when it's legal (or after tryouts if Fed to Fed).
No, the scenario is, the kid skated with another team in violation of the rules, the team that violated the rules isn't allowed to sign him.

I know its a small fish in a big pond but I wonder what the MA Attorney general would think of this. Sounds like there could be some colluding and limiting of completion within leagues. This would be against the law. Kids cannot sign contracts and I honestly wonder how legal it is for parents to sign them for their kids as well. (I am not an attorney so I do not know but I am guessing its prob legal) but it just sounds pretty awful that teams. leagues and coaches are doing this all in the name of profit. They are children.

The bigger concern for the AG would be holding tryouts where no spots are available. HUGE $$$ involved. And then the teams don't even have the decency to let the kid's parents know, either way. I can't tell you how many times I've had to answer "Did we hear from the XXX yet?" from my 8/9/10/11 year old kid. with "Not yet." And it doesn't matter that I say I don't think he should count on it. When you're a kid, you believe!
