You need to talk loud from the bench for kids to hear you.
if you've ever coached competitive sports, emotions are high and its like being in a battle together. As long as no one is being demeaning, or over the top they are fine. Your little ipad princess probably needs to experience it. Its good for them.

If you don't like it, put them in soccer.

Most soccer parents are worse!

The Cella family brings a great team of experience these are just normal growing pains but you can tell this team is showing flashes of playing some real hockey vs having a kid try to go end to end by themselves each time.

So swearing and F-bombs are okay when emotions get the better of the grown-ups in charge, because games for 6/7/8 yo are battles.

Cool.

They need positive feedback when they do the right things and need to be told when not. If they are not listening do they need some yelling absolutely. But the comment is around coaches yelling at these kids with every other word being F this and you F'n that. On the opposite spectrum it also does not help where a coach just pretends like everything is fine because the kids are not learning.

Agreed. The swearing has no place with the kids. Which is clear in every single post.

Not sure why we are yelling in the wind about this? Everyone agrees that's B.S.

(And to clarify, I don't even care if our coach accidently lets an F-bomb slip, that happens. I have sworn tons around my kid at home, its not a big deal. I am talking specifically about constant and angry swearing. That is not okay)
