DS loves football and has been subbed and given less and lesser playtime during every match. He was on defence later moved to wing. In comparison to other team members this is his first team experience. Few of the dads/uncles are coaching and managing the team with their children playing with other players who are competent. Our DS tends to loose focus and gets bored as he does not get the ball passed on. He may need to work on skill development along with stamina.
Recently, when he felt really sick while playing, he held it in until match was finished and exited before team talk as he did not wanted to throw up on pitch. One of the main guy( not his coach, but a decision maker I suppose) noticed him walking out and came on at us asking why he walked out without informing the coach. When I mentioned he is feeling sick, he was not bothered to show any empathy and felt entitled to make a comment on his performance in child's presence. This message is for anyone potentially in a similar situation.
DS has been kept out since the incident, but the question is, should there not be a way to provide feeback where child's confidence is not hampered. Being parents themselves, felt these coaches/ managers should understand this. Guess, people have their own reservations....
