Masters team coaching pay

How many o you know what is paid to your coach/coaches for the season ? Do you pay into a required fund for the team or a monthly pay or how does the team do it? how much do you think the coach should make for the time & effort of practices -meets - meetings required to run the team?

    What's their schedule like? Here in Quebec, which accounts for almost 23% of the whole country's population, I can't think of one single Master Squad having a full time job to offer. What's their schedule like? 15hours of deck, 7hours dryland, 15hours of planning/admin work? Something like that? If you could ask I'd be curious to hear. Again here up north, I think the best opportunities are for those who diversify a bit. Private coaching, web coaching, squad coaching. Problem is that planning should account for a large portion of your coaching time. But it's hard to get paid for what it's really worth. Therefore I'd venture to guess (really guessing here): - Less than 5% of all coaches actually try to plan on a yearly basis. These are probably recently certified young roosters. - Less than 20% of all coaches actually try to plan for a month in advance - Less than 50% of all coaches actually try to plan for a full week in advance - The remaining will plan for a day in advance, at best - Others improvise their sessions in the minutes before the workout The ideal approach is to plan for a full year in advance, including several sub programs per specialty (sprinters, mid/distance swimmers, Triathletes, newbies, elite etc......) and including a periodized dryland program. That takes a lot of time, it can make a huge difference, but again, these hours are tough to sale.
