Last year, Ryan Dolin tried a new approach while coaching football to 10-year-olds: he told them the coaches would just sit on the bench and watch. For that game, the kids got to call their own plays, as the quarterback led the offense and a linebacker guided the defense. Dolin is the Northbrook Park District's 2025 Coach of the Year.
