I don't mind it being a for profit organization (although ours is a non-profit) if the kids are put first. Professional coaching can be viewed as a product if it isn't your passion.

Most rec programs are volunteer. Some are done well, some aren't. Quality control can be maintained better if the coaches are paid though. Not that they are paid much, just that they get something. Strangely enough, it is easier to dismiss someone you are paying than it is to dismiss a volunteer.
