Blues all the way, and Al MacInnis is my favorite player.

No idea why that was my first post. Not saying it's false or anything, just seems pretty random.

I want to put a team logo on my pants. I'd rather not sew it on, as I would have to take apart the leg of the pants to remove a piece of the padding. I was told on Corebem that I could use stick glue...has anyone tried this? Does it stay on, or is there a chance that it will peel over time.

Thoughts?

I never did do it....

It is absolutely brutal were I live.Mainly for SSAC. I mean they have frickon coaches kids on the AA and AAA teams. Its a joke. And they choose certain kids based on what community the played for last year.Its brutal.

Ya there is alot of politics in that whole league, especially SP, not to name any names.

I would have to say that the politics in Sherwood Park and SSAC are very un-ethical. There seems to be a lot of politics here, at least...

Sean Mcann are you from Sherwood Park?

The post below was a reply in the "Hockey pressure" thread, at the start of the winter 2004 season, my first as a minor hockey head coach. I got back lots of advice and we had a pretty good season.

I have been an assistant coach in the past. The players were great.  And I love teaching the game and seeing the players pick things up.  But, as noted above, we had some problem parents. 

To be fair, I think that, for the most part, the parents had been good; it's only the exceptions that cause problems. These ones had told us coaches that we didn't correct / yell enough, and that we were too laid back, encouraging, and happy. They thought that we detracted from the seriousness of the players. etc. etc.

Over the course of the season they started swaying some of the other parents to be a bit more aggressive, too, not just at the games (as noted in the story above), but also at the practices. When I did hockey as a kid, the parents used to drop us off at the practices and pick us up afterwards.

This year I volunteered to be a head coach for Atom house (10-11 yr olds). I'm really worried about the problem parents; they burned out a lot of the head coaches from last year. Now that I have talked to the other head coaches who don't want to coach any more, "what was I thinking"? My wife is asking, "what were you thinking?" But, I do love to teach and see the improvements. 

Does anybody have suggestions about dealing with these types of parents? Should I try to make peace with them, explain what the team goals are for the season, or ignore them / develop a thick skin? I was hoping that the more serious parents would put their sons / daughters on the rep team, but it looks like a lot of those players didn't make that team and will play house this year. These players' parents tended to tell them not to listen to the coaches because the coaches were ignorant, so we sometimes had mayhem at the practices. I'm also worried about some of these parents berating their kids after a "sub-par" game or practice. Any advice from players, parents, coaches, refs, etc. would be greatly appreciated. I think my problem is that I can't understand their point of view.

To the moderators: should this thread be in "General Hockey Discussions" (because it is not really NHL-related)?
