One of my assistant coaches was British. A huge Brit, like you read about, one of those guys who likes his pints black....and at 9am.

I was the coach that would still run practices in the rain and the parents hated me for it, to the point there was (albeit a very polite) protest.

Before I could answer and defend my policy of running practices in the rain my assistant coach steps in and bellows:

"If you cant play football (soccer) in the rain the English would never play football! Now get back to it!"

It was slightly less polite than that but you get the gist. I didnt cancel practices on account of rain.
