It's not all adults, it's certain adults.

I've changed my stance and now think that adults should be allowed to go out as coaches. Earlier in the season I advocated against this, I think that was wrong now. I think that the problem doenst lie in the age of the coach, but if an adult coach wants to deal only with another adult coach, that is a problem. I had this happen to me during a match at nationals. I have also experienced coaches who instantly think they know more about the game because they are older. I agree with Andy's point of having someone out there to take responsibility, that was my job this year (as well as strategy & drive), and it was a toughest one.
I think its just a few rotten apple coaches that have given many adult coaches a bad rep. I saw a good many bad coaches, both student and adult, and many good ones, both student & adult.
