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

Callaway500+ posts

I admit it. I'm a "Daddyball" coach. My son plays 1st base and pitches. He bats 3rd in the line-up and plays most, if not all, of each game.

I'm currently evaluating this season's "watch list" that each coach submitted to the league of the players they felt were worthy of consideration for All Stars. What is interesting is that every other head coach has their son on the watch list. And you know what? Every one of those son's deserves to be there.

I think that if parents were honest they would realize that it's usually the dad's with the best players that coach, not the other way around. JMO.
