I agree Lawrencefan-my outside the loop opinion is that there was animosity amongst the players, therefore motivation was bottomed out. Sure they came out on fire but only for a quarter or two and then that was it. I didn't say they quit-don't want to get jumped for that-but I saw a team that just couldn't keep the fire buring for 4 quarters. They hurt themselves over and over with youth league fundamental mistakes. Then everytime those mistakes were made, it just seemed to me we went further and further down. Then the bickering amongst themselves began. This team IMO was missing a key element to success-that being the "attitude" of sportsmanship-all for one, standing beside one another as teammates, through good or bad without passing blame and ponting fingers.
The new coach has to be a guy that can inspire these kids to play as a team and treat one another with respect-once they do that, things may start to fall in place.

I wish whomever it is good luck-I'm sure its certainly not a very attractive thing to come in to.

Can I get a huge AMEN for that!!! Great post!!

AMEN
