[quote=Anonymous]I've noticed similar behavior on my son's Little League team. His team is 8 and 9 year olds. There are a couple of kids who go after other kids. Example: Coach says that Bobby is playing first base. Nasty kid starts yelling that Bobby can't catch the ball and shouldn't play first base. Some other kids pile on. Nasty kid(s) will taunt the weaker hitters when they get up to bat, etc. I think the key here is that the coaches and parents create a team "culture" where this kind of nastiness is not tolerated. One warning and the nasty kid is out of the game. Some parents won't like this, but you need to nip this crap in the bud, IMO. Little League should be just as much about sportsmanship as it is about building skills.[/quote]
