[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Are you the coach that verbally abuses teenage girls?  Are you the club that does nothing about it and tells parents to go to other clubs?  Why is this acceptable?[/quote]

No, I'm just a parent that has moved my kids when they didn't like the coach. I'm also on round 2 with my eldest in her senior year of college. I don't know what you qualify as verbal abuse. Everyone is different I guess. Our DDs don't care about yelling, but what made them unhappy was being pointed out in front of the whole team for something they did wrong to the point they want to go hide. After something like that, we would likely just switch clubs unless it got better. It did one time.

I don't think clubs do nothing, which could be a good thing. You can't just fire a coach for one, two, or three players complaining on a team of 18 players. I guess it also matters what the complaint is. If a coach is smoking weed or drunk at games and practices, that would be a cause for dismissal.

Is it acceptable? Again, I think it depends how many players a coach upsets. I have watched BP yell many times at players but not in a abusive manor. I have watched a well known ECNL coach go from multiple teams to none in a matter of two years time. In his case, I think more than 50% of the families complained. He was the type of coach that insulted players during a game in a passive/aggressive manor.
