Anybody have a clue as to who the new tennis coach will be there? I stepped down in August and as of today a new coach has not been named. The pay stipend was cut last year and it seems no one is interested. $325 a team is a joke considering what the other coaches in the region get paid. I couldn't afford to coach any more. It cost me more to do it than what I was getting paid. I hope someone does it i hate to see the program get cut out completely. Most schools pay their coaches substantially more than what Prestonsburg does. Most districts pay about 4,000 to their coaches.(2,000 boys and 2,000 girls). Any thoughts??????? About who the new coach will be?

Actually $325 a team is joke period. It wouldn't matter what the other coaches got paid. The time and effort that goes into coaching tennis the right way (or even the wrong way) deserves a lot more than a mere $325. They might as well just ask for a volunteer because that is what it amounts to. I hope they either find someone to do it or raise the pay because the kids deserve it.
