For sure, a BIG tip of the hat to those that coach for free. Commendable. BUT no one should look down on someone who does it for pay or down on parents that choose to pay a coach. And parents shouldn't assume that it's some constitutional right to have their kid coached and instructed for free. Throw them some bones.
I don't know about the "for the girls" thing. Gets thrown around a lot on OFC but I would say that many coaches do it because they enjoy coaching, many umpires do it because they enjoy plssing people off and many TD's enjoy running a tournament. (just kidding, ump's enjoy umping. It's both for Tim). In other words there are some selfish reasons, it just not for the girls.
