Was the coach a volunteer? It's amazing how fast a position like that turns into a headache, and then a huge strain, even for someone who truly loved the job in the beginning. Volunteers get taken for granted so quickly. I quit a volunteer position recently because the fuckers were demanding unfair things of me left and right--and so far not one person has asked the same thing of the new lady yet. (Not saying you were demanding anything of him personally, Griff, you're the champion who's taken the helm. I'm just guessing that quitting might do a whole lot to alleviate his depression.)
