Re: Adult vs. Student coaches

Our team has a student coach (me). I am very often ignored by adult coaches that think that their strategy is the ultimate strategy that must be followed. It saddens me. How do I get over it? "Can I speak with your drivers please?"

There have been less problems between adults and me this year, I look like I'm 21 even though I'm only 16. People try to talk to my drivers instead of me because they think I'm older.

Whenever I have a problem with an adult coach not listening, and there is no driver available to talk to, I call in my 6'5" teacher advisor to talk strat while I watch. He scares people, just ask any of his students .
