Should High School ADs hold a coaching postion?

East Nasty, your own AD coaches two other sports. Be careful what you wish for.

All the title means in Metro is you have to beg people to sell tickets and concessions and you have to make trips to Sam's and the  bank  on your own time. Not exactly the "glory" position.

The principal still has final say so on any hires. AD has no say.

At private schools, the  AD becomes all that plus a fund raiser, peace keeper and master  schedule maker.

At suburban schools, the  challenge is to get all the coaches on the same page and try to secure funding also.

Rural schools you basically have to make the most of whatever limited resources you have although the townfolk tend to have more loyalty to the  "brand".

Metro Nashville is the  same except they also have an "athletic business manager" position that is paid and  actually does all the work.

It is alot of work to do for not getting paid.  You have to do scheduling for all sports teams boys and girls.  Arrange and approve transportation for all sports.  Find ticket takers and concession workers, oversee all the gate monies and team budgets.  Takes a very dedicated person to do all that for no extra pay.
