Reply to "Expected time commitment -High school Coach"

I think it's a relic of yesteryear where coaches, and for that matter teachers, give countless hours on nights and weekends to help an never ending parade of kids. Getting corrections, occasional tips and such is one thing, but a regularly scheduled, weekly private one-on-one batting session? Why would anyone think this should be free to any and all? I would insist on paying even if the coach didn't ask. It seems odd that the same people who happily pay a travel coach for hitting lessons bristle at the thought of paying the HS coach for the same service.
