I think a lot of coaches let it go so they don't have to be confronted by the parents. Pretty sad. Sweat bands used to be worn to absorb the sweat. Now they are used to keep the hair out of their eyes or some dont wear one and just let their hair flop around in their eyes.Pitiful. I guess that's the trend of today's athletics. Don't ruffle the feathers of the parents or they will have the coaches job. No support
That’s one thing ole Howdee never would stand for is long hair. Then he went to Thimble and that all went out the window. When the best players refuse to conform to a rule some coaches cave.Ovenmit wrote: ↑Sat Feb 04, 2023 8:09 am Some kids on some teams I've seen need haircuts.

To some coaches the rules are for players that aren’t very good. If they break the rules they get disciplined. But if the best player breaks a rule, well then the coach comes up with an excuse not to enforce it. It’s a shame, but it’s the reality these days.Almost Champions wrote: ↑Sat Feb 04, 2023 8:35 am Carl had a specific haircut that everyone had to have and no one questioned that. We almost won the whole thing.
Flip forward to today and Coach Jeff wants the boys to cut their hair and all he hears is parents beeching.
Says everything about why our beloved ‘does are in the shape they are in. Plus we have people complaining taking kids down to mediocre Meigs and claiming our coaches can’t reed. I have no idea what that’s about. Maybe someone can enlighten me.
That coach should be told to hit the trail. I'm y day it was off the ear neck and not in the eyes. .no questions asked. Parents enforced it and supported it. If not u didn't play. That's all called discipline which for the most part is a thing of the past.Donnie Hagglethorpe wrote: ↑Sat Feb 04, 2023 8:40 amTo some coaches the rules are for players that aren’t very good.

When does short hair represent your school? Boys have been having long hair going back to the 60s. Next thing you know you will have a topic on girls having too short of hair while playing sports.Ovenmit wrote: ↑Sat Feb 04, 2023 8:09 am Some kids on some teams I've seen need haircuts.

You must be in the new trend of no discipline. Let them dress and look the way they want. Kids should wear the same kind of shoes and socks. All of that is called a uniform. Not an individual thing. It's a team thing. If you dress different in someway it draws attention to you and not your team. If a kid transfers because of discipline rule that kid I doubt will be successful anywhere
No I agree with the socks and shoes thing if the shoes can be afforded by all players some kids have parents that can’t afford the team shoe seen first hand playing and coaching many different sports but hair cuts? No that is just dumb and antiquated. You can be a disciplined athlete and not have a high top fade.Ovenmit wrote: ↑Sat Feb 04, 2023 12:06 pmYou must be in the new trend of no discipline.

Agree, it’s a privilege to represent your school. Cover up the darn tats tooOvenmit wrote: ↑Sat Feb 04, 2023 12:06 pmYou must be in the new trend of no discipline.

High top Fade?! Hell with that! If I was coaching I would demand my kids have waist length dreadlocks! Can’t play cool if you don’t look cool!SOC_Fan08 wrote: ↑Sat Feb 04, 2023 12:16 pmNo I agree with the socks and shoes thing if the shoes can be afforded by all players some kids have parents that can’t afford the team shoe seen first hand playing and coaching many different sports but hair cuts?

So, if a kid or 2 wears shoes that hurts his feet just to match his teammates while he is playing and have to sit out a game or 2 that's ok with you. How dumb are you?Ovenmit wrote: ↑Sat Feb 04, 2023 12:06 pmYou must be in the new trend of no discipline. Let them dress and look the way they want. Kids should wear the same kind of shoes and socks.

I agree with the socks and shoe thing but it’s just hair it has nothing to do with discipline I think you just need to log off for the day.Ovenmit wrote: ↑Sat Feb 04, 2023 12:06 pmYou must be in the new trend of no discipline.
