Re: Adult coach?

Our team has always had a student coach. We've been moving more and more towards student leadership on our team over the past few years, so I wouldn't expect to see this change. By no means am I denouncing adult coaches, though- I have met a lot of amazing and inspiring adult coaches who have incredible minds for strategy and do great things on their team. It's just that given the current dynamics and habits of our team, I don't think an adult coach would work out.
