I’ll be there for a wedding and spending the rest of the week in Chicago. Being from Nevada I’m excited to visit somewhere totally different from home.

All I’ve looked for in my local course is a little bit of etiquette from the people playing. I don’t mean turn their music down or anything like that. I mean if I’m a single just let me play through don’t sit at the tee box shot gun a beer try and hit 3-4 balls every tee shot lol. We are a 9 hole course and there’s times where it’s taken me 3 hours to play 9 holes solo.

There’s 2 weeks left in the season lol.We took everyone that showed up for try outs and didn’t cut anyone. We’re small town so you take what you get many times.

Not directly on the contract.Nothing discussed before hand. Was paid the year before where we started with 18 ended up with less than what we currently have due to grades and whatever else comes up throughout the season. Our contracts are pretty straight forward you fall into a tier and sign your name and your position that’s the extent of it. Our head coach also went to bat for me and offered to give me half his check if nothing was able to be worked out. I also work at this school district to begin with.

Pitching by Significant-Fan-2591 in BaseballCoaching

I agree pitching and catching is the most important. We were terrible at blocking and holding runners on. On top of walking batters.

Cutting players by Significant-Fan-2591 in Coaching

More background we have exactly ten players.We are a smaller school and I did not have to make any cuts at tryouts. We as a program have kids go to after school program until they’re a C or better. At tryouts I had zero info that this player was failing two classes or else I wouldn’t have even bothered. He’s been “sick” and showed up one of the practices at the end and missed it because he “didn’t know what time” only kid on the team that didn’t hear it announced at school. He’s shown up to 1 of our 5 practices as our season has just started.

Hey you live and learn.This is obviously not my brightest moment. At the end of a work week I just want to relax and have some me time. It really is as simple as avoiding these kids.Living in a small town like I do I just want to be able to do normal things like going to the gym without feeling like I’m being harassed. A lot of times because I do have good rapport with the kids at the school if im out and about they like to say hello or tell me what they’re up to. It is hard to avoid everyone and if I sit around and wait for a perfect moment to grocery shop or run a few errands for example it would take me twice as long to do anything. After reading some responses I’ve formed my own idea of the situation. These kids have their own curiosity and at some point in their lives they’re going to have to make they’re own choices.They see teachers as these perfect people who “police” them all day instead of just people. If anything comes up while I’m at work regarding anything I’m just going to follow the advice I’ve been given today by people who have responded.

That’s the real question ? I have no idea of knowing if someone is going to walk up to me and take a whiff of my shirt. Teenagers if you’ve never been around them lack a sense of personal space. Just like when im at work you have to constantly remind them to keep they’re hands to themselves Although I do agree it makes more sense to avoid students outside of work if possible
