i have coached "Pony League" baseball. not everyone has that but it is baseball "post little league". different areas of the country call it different things..
i have also coached girls basketball. not very well at either but someone needed to fill a gap, and i volunteered.
i have played:
High School Baseball, Football, Basketball, Ran Cross Country.
College: IntraMural Football, Softball, Basketball
Post College: Softball
was never very good at any of them, except as a WR in football....i did ok.
the worst position to be involved in with sports is not coaching or playing....but a very timely topic: Refereeing.
I umped baseball. For one summer. I couldn't quit fast enough. Parents are
a-holes to the highest degree. i mean real a-holes.Also refed College intramural hoops. This wasn't so bad as long as you are consistant. Let him bang and play, or call everything.
It is a very very very hard job and not something i would ever want to have to make a living doing.
