Seriously? Noah had a makeup game tonight at 7PM and they notified us at 5 PM. NICE. As if working parents can just make all that happen so quickly. We both work in another state, we have to get Noah from across town, get home to get the soccer clothes (which weren’t even clean from the Monday game as we had no idea we needed them) and get him there by 7PM. No plans for supper as again, we didn’t know.
I emailed the assistant coach and said, “Sorry, we won’t make it, we can’t.” I hate it too, because I believe in team effort and not showing up makes the other kids suffer. He mentioned the coach didn’t make many calls so they would be very short.
I called the YMCA to complain and it turns out he has known for at least a week, but he may not have checked his emails. Why did this guy sign up to coach, can anyone tell me please? His child has zero interest in playing, this guy doesn’t get paid and he SUCKS as a coach and has only made it to one game and was actually a no show at the last game.
We went to our first T-ball practice Wednesday night and thank goodness we have two real coaches that want to be there, had a plan and actually seemed to care about the kids and go figure; had rules and schedules in their hands! How impressive. We have decided to just write off soccer this year; some years you get a good coach and some years you get a bad coach. What a shame this guy thought he would waste our time and money (this isn’t a cheap thing to pay for and my sister paid for soccer thank you very much) and just half a** coach this team.
I got the next make up game from the YMCA so I don’t have to rely on this guy. We are ready and we’ll have our plans mapped out. No more 2 hour surprise “get ready” emails!
