Coaches Showing "No Class"

[Trophy Hunter]

Unfortunately, clock management is part of the game.
Do you know who feels good when your coach doesn't properly manage the clock?
The other team.

Two sides is always good but the main man of Nemesis is the king of stalling

Felix the Cat, the old "King of the clock"...haha, that sure brings back memories...Do they still shake water bottles full of rocks?

also, I am OCD enough that the misspelled "coahes" in the title is driving me nuts everytime i see it.
OP, please fix it!

Oh, and I agree w/Trophy, if a clock is part of the game, no rules are being broken.
You know how you get around that?
Simple, be ahead in the last inning...

And if your parents are getting into it with the opposite coach, you need to reign them in and stop them from feeding the fire, it takes two to tangle...If that coach doesn't have anyone to argue with, he will end up arguing with himself...

Why are so many coaches losing their cool in games, a total loss of RESPECT for their players and the sport? When a coach gets upset at another team because they just got out played and out coached on the field, why do they embarrass their players and start fights with parents or not have a team come out and shake hands with a team. If you are mad at another coach you should always come out and let the girls shake hands with the other team. It is not the girls fault you lost your cool.

I saw 2 games in 14U this weekend is Las Vegas where this happened.

The USA Athletics (Perez) did not have his players come out and shake the hands of the Nemesis players after he lost the game on Saturday. It was the last inning in game. The coach got mad because they tried to steal 2nd and she got picked like a Grape at 2nd. The top half of the inning was over. There was 3 minutes left in the game Nemesis was the home team and were up 3-1. There was no way they would get a chance for another at bat. The first batter got out. Now with less than a minute to play, Batter #2 comes up and she has to tie her shoe. The coach got mad, pulled his team off the field and game over. He yelled at all his girls to get in the dugout. Nemesis gave them a cheer and headed to shake hands. The coach yelled “we are not shaking their hands get in the dugout”. The coaches and players never came out. The Nemesis girls yelled to them good game and they left the field.

Such a classless act by Coach Perez to do that to his Girls and the Nemesis Girls, it was a very good game and to not let the girls shake hands after that game was Ridiculous. Why would let your DD play for someone like that? There are no excuses to do that to the girls.

Then come to find out, that the other coach on the team came up to a Nemesis female parent in the parking lot after the game and started talking trash to her about her team. He is lucky his head did not hit the concrete.

What a bunch of KNUCKLE HEADS the coaches from USA Athletics Perez are!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


The 2nd was a Coach From Las Vegas Blast who got so mad after his team lost the game Saturday night that he came to the back stop and started arguing with the other teams parents and told them to F*** off. Then he started to take his sweatshirt off and ran back to the dugout to get off the field and try to fight the other parents in the stands, all a long as his players are watching this happen. His DD had to see it as well. Way to represent your team and Organization!!!

How embarrassing to these organizations that these types of things happen. It is suppose to be about the girls and Sportsmanship. Not about a coach’s ego!!!!!!!!!!!

Two words: pool play

Maybe you should have channeled more positive energy into your team to make a run on Sunday as opposed to worrying so much about what happened Saturday. Would you have made this post if your team wasn't one and done on Sunday?

I say we just start cracking domb's of the abuser's, in the parking lot when "stall tactics" are being used.., that will teach them..., maybe the kids can even watch, aint no messing around anymore at 12u this is intense serious sh**!

Would have posted it either way! Has nothing to do with losing Sunday.

There was no shame in the loss on Sunday. When Nemesis (in their 2nd bracket game) takes the Tournament Champion So Cal Athletics to a 4-3 loss in the last inning that is a good game. Specially, when no other team scored more than 2 runs on them all tournament and they scored a minimum of 12 runs in every other game they played that weekend including the championship game.


They were 1:20 no new games. Clock Management is all part of the game just like the others said!

I remember a coach in a 10U tournament pool game with a drop dead time limit, substitute his catcher with only a few minutes left. New catcher had to come in from the outfield and put on the gear. Old catcher took off her gear and ran to the outfield.

I dont think any other team has been so close to beating this talented team... Most would say the best 99 team in the nation, that being said that must make you like number two in the nation...and since usa athletics only lost to by a score 2-1 that has to make them like number three in the nation....I'm just saying

I am sure Manny is pleased that his parents are coming to this site and making these type of posts.

Sore winners are just as bad as sore losers.

The above thread does not paint the Nemesis Elite organization in poor light. Nor does it paint any other organization in a poor light. Rather, it is indicative of the passion associated with the younger divisions (12u & 14u) and the poor judgement of a passionate public board novice.

Nonetheless, the Nemesis Elite organization discourages its members from posting emotionally charged comments on boards. These attempts do not result in a positive outcome for those involved. Further, such behavior is not aligned with the "Positive Sports Parenting" guidelines issued by the organization. There are better ways to resolve conflict.

Nemesis Elite parents are encouraged to direct concerns to their respective team managers and then to the organization so that appropriate steps can be taken with constructive communications to other organizations and/or event organizers.

Nemesis Elite will conduct a review of the aforementioned events to insure that Nemesis Elite teams win with grace and are sensitive to their opponents.
