Speaking from experience if your little league's board is as crooked as ours you wouldn't want to be one. Somewhere along the way they figured out the term "the pen is stronger than the sword. Our league has pencil wedged the other teams so bad it isn't funny. The politics make the league a two edge sword. Just like all great ideas the members-parents turn it into a competition between themselves and not the kids. You will have a chance to lead young people in a positive way but many nights you will go home so frustrated at the injustice. Point is, more to coaching LL than hanging out with a lot of wonderful kids. To get to coach though get yourself about 5-6 kids and tell the president that y'all would like to come in. If they have a draft they will expect you to finish out your roster with draft players. If they don't you might be expected to recruit 11 or 12 kids. You will be with those kids and more importantly their parents for the next 5 years.possibly. Nothing you can do for this season except maybe help a team with their practices. You can take this time to scout recs and other sources for your team next year. You don't want to throw a team together quickly because you need to learn what kind of people you want to have on your team.Studs, studs with jack *** parents, whinny kids positive kids, supportive kids ,hard working kids, lazy kids.Are the Yankees reaching by signing Roger Clemens?
gotta know the sport and volunteerMost local leagues have to draft parents to coach the teams, some of whom have little or no real experience playing the game themselves. It sounds like you have some good experience with the game - if you played on your college squad you probably have had better coaching and know more than most of the coaches. Find out who is on your local league's board and ask one of them, or just wander down one night to the diamond and talk with a coach after practice. If that coach doesn't need any help, he'll probably be able to point you to another team who might need the help.
