Yeah I had a coach like that, but It was when I was 26, I was playing second grade Aussie rules for my country town, now 2/3 of the team game from the team across the road who had just folded and had been "wooden spooners" for like a decade, we had the spirit that we were having a social kick with our mates, sure we tried our hardest but we weren't serious, just for fun. Well to cut a long story short the new team I was playing for had inherited the wooden spooner position, we lost our game by 2 goals(12 points) to the team that was top of the ladder(and ended up winning the flag), in the change room the coach started saying we had played our best, the went on into a screaming tirade about our best wasn't good enough and winning is all that matters, I just stood up and walked to the showers and ignored him. He started having a go at me saying I'm not finished yet, my reaction was "Well I'm finished I only play to have fun with my mates, and secondly we aren't playing first grade and we aren't playing for sheep stations". He started saying shit like I was week and then a heap of other boys stood up and went to the showers and ignored him to. Pretty much from that point on no one had respect for him and some of us didn't show up for the rest of the season(and yhe ones who did ignored the dick of a coach and just looked after their teammates). Needless to say the club didn't renew his position the following season, our new coach was like us, seconds is for fun, and we made the finals that year, I understand the attitude of winning at all cost if its first grade or professional(some of our first grade players were payed) but when its just social or juniors the participation and friendship is whats important, winning is just a very welcome bonus. With my daughter starting nippers next year(under 7's) all I care is she has fun and tries her hardest, and god help any parent who has a go at her for sucking like I did
