Reply to "What to do when coach starts playing "Daddy Ball""

Daddy Ball is Daddy Ball no matter where you go.

In most Little Leagues, the coaches are volunteer fathers who coach so that their kid not only plays, but makes the All Star team from that park.

The coach's kid usually plays shortstop, pitches and bats either first or clean up.

If you see that there is Daddy Ball happening, get away from that coach at the first opportunity. They have no care for winning, only making sure their child is playing all the time and if you let them tell it, leading the team in every category.

Leaving for a better program is not quitting. It is choosing to play where the competition is fair.

Seen it way too many times where a kid shows up the coach's kid and is benched.

Kid's do not want to wear a uniform to watch a ball game when they could be playing.

Usually when a team complains about Loyalty or quitters, that team usually chases the kids away.

Most often once the kids join another team, they come back to beat the team they left.
