This is a great topic and so many of you are right in what you say. A quality team leader (or leaders) from among the players can make a season a success. It makes coaching so much more enjoyable than it would be without quality leaders, and a quality leader in many ways helps create leaders from (usually) younger players.

I believe that a good leader is a natural leader. I have seen guys who were chosen to be captains then change because of the title. The title of captain doesn't make one a leader. The player is either a leader or not, can be vocal or not, but he must be genuine.

Great topic.
