Problem?....ok, maybe not the right word.

But, there seem to be more and more of showcase, tournament only, travel far - kinds of teams. At the same time, there seem to be less and less of coaches and teams that really work and develop players. Teams that really hold an actual practice - where players learn new skills and get a chance to work on those skills. More and more players are left to develop their skills working with an individual instructor (at add'l costs, by the way).

I know I sound 'old school' but didn't a player's coach used to be his 'instructor'?
