Realize that school is more important than baseball. Explain this to the coach. If you're any good, he'll make some exceptions for you.

I have a friend who is doing it!  Her son is middle school aged, and very responsible.  When she leaves for work, she leaves his lessons (she uses a curriculum that is software based), she checks in with him at lunch to see if he is having any difficulties that she can get him through.  After work she takes to him to sports practice, then they get home, she reviews the lessons, and they review the lessons.  \nIt is hard, but it can be done, depending on the child's age and responsibility level.

Easiest job would be your local area pop warner football..(kids)   Unless you know someone in a high school level, it's hard to get in coaching directly in to High School level, unless you have a good football resume or played in college. (Plus you have to be more than just a coach, you have to teach a class or two, most likely phys ed.)  TO get your foot in the door, you can petition the school /school board to become volunteer.. equipment cleaning.. field lining.. etc..

I think Iowa is generally underated. There are a few reasons for that- even though they are in the Big 10, they always get overshadowed by "the Big 2 "- Michigan and Ohio State. Iowa is far  from any big media city so you just don't hear anything about them. And the visiting pink locker rooms rock !!!

I was in track in grades 9-12. What I learned was to set goals for myself, then go about achieving them. I learned to do my best, even if I didn't win. I learned about the closeness that having teammates will teach about people.\nI learned how to accept others more. I learned how to accept criticism, and how to bow my will to someone who knows more than I do, i.e., my coach.\nI learned how to cheer on my other teammates in their events, even though we might not see eye-to-eye in other things, sports builds a bond of respect.\n\nMy daughter was in cross-country, and now plays soccer. Her teammates have taught her how to respect others. To root for your teammates, even when they beat you in your event.\nSoccer has taught her how to play in a team; that to win a game is not all about one person, but the whole team needs to get involved to win. She's learned to respect her opponents, even when their opponents win, you respect that.\n\nTo us, high school sports isn't about self-promotion, even though you might get cheered for you efforts. Because your efforts go for the team, and the school your represent.
