After seeing some of the tournaments early in this years AAU season, I have come up with this thought of whether some of the Coaches understand that AAU basketball is about the kids and not themselves.
My obeservations are as follows:
1. Coaches constantly arguing with the refs during the games, and complaining about every call made...This is a Summer league coaches, understand that the Underpaid refs arent going to get every call right, and from the tournaments ive seen the same ref crew of 2 has worked every game for the day.....Any coaches getting technicals and getting thrown out of games should be unacceptable, and should warrant a fine in someway....Coaches should be rolemodels to these kids
2. I saw two coaches start arguing with each other during a game, and they met each other at halfcourt to continue arguing about who knows what, only to have the refs stop the game and give them both a Technical...
Now I have seen some good coaches out there, but they are in the minority....Coaches please actually do some coaching and let the kids put on the show.....
