I was talking to my daughter about this subjected were trying to figure it out. We looked back at her former coaches>
Travel:(Northeast)
All five of her travel coaches were male
One assistant coach was female(was a college all-american in the early 1990's)
From what we could recall she played against 5-6 teams during that period with a female coach
High School
3 years with a male coach
1 year with a female coach(another college all-american played in late 1990s)her Senior year
1 assistant Female coach her freshman year(former college player in her 30's)
as mentioned there were many more female high school coach in her league
College Coach was a male, but all the assistant coaches were female
For what it is worth my daughter said she preferred male coaches.
I also came across this article which seems to suggest that the issue is in other Women's sports as well:
