Coaching baseball and other sports for young kids can be a thankless job.    Did it for years, the chewing outs by parents was about equal to the ones who thanked us.     Funny thing,   when a parent complains and I offered him the job, he usually had a lot of excused why he couldn't do it.      The reward comes later years when a young man comes up and tells you how much fun he had playing on a team you coached.
