parents might get better at 16 u but coaches sures the hell do not. In fact i was bumped today by a 16u coach who didnt like an obstruction call. Which leads me to my next ? I have reported it to the controlling board for their action, but i was wondering does a bump constitute assult or battery. I live in IL and I am 16 still yound enough to be considered a minor. I have asked a bunch of officials in my local association, but have gotten a split answer. As of now i am leaving it up to the controling board. IL ASA to take care of the situation, but if they do nothing should i pursue further action. I dont know if it matters, but it was not accidental he went nose to nose screeming at me and hitting me with his spit. Just want some input of what you would do.
