Gail was the worst. The biggest joke of a lacrosse coach I have ever had and I had many. I don’t even know if I can call her a coach because not once did she coach. She spent all her energy yelling at us about trivial things. Gail sat on the sideline eating her snacks during halftime while the players were coaching one another. Funny she was eating snacks because she first requested donations for snacks from the parents and then proceeded to put a camera in our snack room because we were “stealing the food.” Gail claims she played three sports in college, but I’m not sure she really understands how college sports work. Players were expected to lead the team through the season both in practice and in games. These were the same players that she talked poorly about and degraded within earshot of others. She will not support you and lift you up, but rather scream at you and think you are not worthy of her time. If you were successful despite her not investing energy into your development, she would not dare acknowledge it. According to her, there is no time for feedback and all she cares about is the future. Don’t be fooled by her mental health matters t-shirts, all that matters to her is winning an argument… including things that can be proven wrong with receipts, facts, and eye-witnesses. You will not win against her and she will not help you win on or off the field. If you are considering playing for her think about meals, money, scout, and gear… GOOD LUCK.
