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

I used to get as many parents as were there to help with drills. BUT THEN, the county imposed a rule that anyone using county fields or facilities had to pre-screen all volunteers and the volunteers had to pass a criminal records background test before they could work with any kids. Result: Only the manager and assistants (of which we weren't allowed more than 2), all of whom had to have pre-clearance, could work with the kids. And if one or more of them couldn't be there that day, you were just going to have to make do.

Now all those who don't want to help have a ready excuse. And heaven help you if they report you for asking them to work practice without a volunteer clearance card.
