Hills through the grades at PAL is a bunch of morons. Believe me, it starts in 1st grade where they are loathe to institute a 1 pass rule to get other kids involved. Just want to see there kid with the ball--its why they never win when they get older...
So let me get this straight. Teaching the kids to pass in first grade before directly going to the cage is a recipe for bad coaching?

Heard a crazy ridiculous story about the Hills 2025 PAL coach who's kid plays on 91. He has been benching kids this season because apparently going undefeated in PAL against teams that have evenly split squads is very important. Telling his son to go to goal on every possession. What a clown...
and the quest for the perfect season is unfortunately ended at Rockville Centre with a tie.
My son plays for that hills team. It is split into east and west NOT A and B. That coach does not bench kids to win. Everyone cycles through the lines . You obviously have no idea what you are talking about.

That guys another disgruntled Blast parent trying to rip the coach. What a loser
That hills coach that is such a "clown" took two kids with special needs on his team that another town said no to because they were "too competitive". If your son played for him you would know that he told the kids before the game that he didn't care about going undefeated, and that they played that game to win because they dedicated that game to Ray Pfeiffer, the FDNY lieutenant who died over Memorial Day weekend. The only clown is anyone who talks crap when they know nothing.
In first grade, yes you have to encourage passing other wise the game will come down to my best guy vs. your best guy (usually the coaches sons) and the ball is their sticks the whole game and no one else touches it. This is fact, not conjecture. I'm a coach, not a disgruntled parent.
Some parents don't understand when our kid is on a fast break down the middle passing to your kid on attack who happens to be guarding the defensemen isn't the best move. That same coaches kid gets thrown on D and in goal because no one else volunteers. He gets hacked to crap because the other team doubles him because your kid doesn't understand to cut when someone is driving towards him. You don't understand when we are working on these very things in practice your kid is goofing off in the back. He is only pretends to like lax because you and his brother love it. His main goal in a game is to get in and out without making a mistake that you are going to yell at him about. That is why when it his turn in the rotation he slides back to the end of the line. Sorry for those that it offend but I promise most coaches wish they didn't have to coach their kids. I also understand there are dad's coaching that only do so to control their kids playing time. It is the reason why I volunteer every year

It simply comes down to if you don't like your pal team or how the league is run then go elsewhere or get involved and advocate for change. If that doesn't work at least you made an effort..
Sounds like this Hills Coach has a bit of a complex.. hahaha
Did you pick up your trophy for winning almost all your games in PAL this season. Oh that's right there are no trophies in PAL 4th grade lax.. Your the best coach, you know that in your heart even without the trophy..

Point well made but unfortunately much easier to [ChillLaxin] and complain on this forum of higher learning than to try to make any real change
