JOIN NOWStruggling to work alongside coach
I joined my sons football team last year as they were struggling for assistant coach's. However I'm working with someone that is insufferable. he manages two teams and is just generally all over the place. Late to games and training so I'm left to step up. wonders off during games or leaves early. The kids have done brilliantly last few weeks me and the other assistant have stepped in we really seen in a change in the kids. he turns up today and completely changes everything again. Our team lost terribly all the kids look confused as to what's going on and parents were angry. he left early and I'm left to speak to the parents myself. I poor my heart and soul in to this team but I feel I am going to have to walk away. Where do I go from here?

Dealing with a similar situation at the moment and I would say communication goes a really long way, itâs my first season coaching a team and my âassistantâ doesnât seem to take it as serious as me or put as much effort, try communicating this with them and see how they respond. Seems like the person in question might have too much on their plate at the moment and might benefit from you stepping up and him stepping back maybe?
