Yes, general rule of thumb is that the player should be driving and initiating everything. Communication should be between RC/HC and player. The exception is when you get to the point where money (which the parent will pay) is involved.
Nothing wrong with necessary guidance, which, at the beginning, is quite a bit for most. This is a great teaching opportunity in so many ways for your son/s let alone what the schools want to see.
There are lots of threads on this topic here that you can search and you should. The player needs to drive the process for many, many reasons. I know it often seems quite counter-intuitive.
Agree. One of the great opportunities that student athletes get to learn and do something important independently. Having him drive the process... that's going to be interesting.
