You forgot the fact that it is very difficult to get anyone to coach youth sports. You also forget that without these volunteers, lots of kids would never get the chance to play at all.
This is kind of like having your driving criticized by people who don't even know how to ride a tricycle. When all else fails, be quiet and thank me for the ride and appreciate that you didn't have to walk.
