I'm headed into the final stretch of our travel ball ride, having been through park district ball, then C, B and A level programs.

I was thinking to myself the other day... I don't know that a coach or program has ever asked for feedback.

Before you reply - I'm not talking about nagging or complaining. That's certainly out of bounds.

But it's interesting to me that I've never gotten a survey. Don't program leaders or coaches (or really anyone leading an organization), want to receive feedback?

I don't have any axe to grind, we've had a great ride. But you'd think that someone might ask what they can do to improve.

Is my experience unique?

If my experience isn't unique, this would seem to be a deficiency.

(The only way it isn't a deficiency is if we believe that orgs are all-knowing and infallible!)
