Some of the worst behavior I have ever seen involved youth sports. Adults cheating and lying! Happened to us this weekend in a Tournament.

Last year my then 12 yr older, had a coach who made all of the players stand right up on the plate...so they could milk a walk instead of learning how to hit a baseball.

Some coaches want to win at all cost, at the expense of the development of young baseball players. They are trying to relive their past until of letting young kids have their time to learn, have fun, win and lose on their own accord.

Sad really.

There is passive misbehaviour and active misbehaviour...and probably not enough prayer even from the “good” folks for these misguided souls!
