Youth Coaches: Wither the Cone?

I have the great honor and pleasure of coaching my son's 13-under soccer team. I'm not the best teacher, but I do my best and we win our share of games, and certainly by the end of the season, there's a marked uptick in the quality of play from the start of the season. That's my benchmark.

Trust me, I'm competitive and I want us to win every time we're on the field, but I hold that back from my team.
