Let's share some travel team coaching horror stories.

How about the one about the 8u travel team coach that likes to put down boys that did not make the travel team by telling them to their faces that they are not any good?

Nice, huh?

By your name, can I assume you live in Commack? Does the 8U Coach run the in-house town team or are you referring to an independent team?

How about the one with the pool cleaning coach with a drinking problem that recruits a girl to pitch for a 13u team.

Sounds like the real losers were the kids that did make the team and will have to deal w/ that jerk.

Whats wrong with that? At least he is telling the truth as little johnny continues to never hit make errors and never learns the game. Maybe the dad will pick up ball and work with LJ, telling the truth is not the worst thing.

Not surprised your from Commack. Every team from Commack that I have come across the coaches are lunatics and a bunch of cry babies and dont know much about the game. Its is every team I think they send the coaches from Commack to "cry baby school". Anyone else have stories about the amatuer winers from Commack ?

Hey don't lump all coached from Commack into one heap. I hail from the hamlet of Commack and have never had a problem and I know coach at the college level. My teams won for many years and we played good baseball from Commack South Little league and beyond.

I don't know what's going on so much now in Commack but we just went out and played ball and did well.

Please don't throw the entire town under the bus

Also they must have some good ball players the HS made it to the County Championship they lost but they played some good baseball.

8 years old thats kind of young to tell a kid he stinks, They are still learning the basic's of baseball at that age, Anything your leaving out about this horror storie??

in house

At 8 years of age you say that to Little Johnny's parents, not Little Johnny. And isn't 8 years of age a little young to conclude that a kid can't do something.
