"This coach is a perfect example of just because you play college field hockey does not mean you should coach college field hockey. While she had a pretty good first season as head coach because of one recruit, it went downhill from there. In hindsight I think that is because she just does not have the tools to be an effective coach. So many instances of lack of communication with players. Not giving feedback after a shift, good or bad. Saying the exact same thing to players in private meetings, so not giving individual criticisms based on skills. Not changing the game plan during a game when the set plan was obviously not working. Not giving feedback to the team after games on what went wrong and what went right. She always had the players speak to this when clearly the players needed their coach to be a coach. The worst was when she decided to get married in season and miss/change practises to accommodate her wedding schedule. I don't think she's a bad person. I do think that this is not her calling. There should be mandatory coaching clinics for coaches to attend in the off season. "
