I was so upset with his "performance" during his playoff game, that I am considering sending him a certificate , THE BOBBY KNIGHT AWARD, for most obnoxius coach. And perhaps a note that we no longer will tolerate this behavior and he will not be asked to help next year. It's hard to get coaches, but this stuff should not have to tolerated. Any feed back form you guys would be encourging. I'm sure if their could be any legal recourse by him or not. Help.
I applaud your efforts to educate the coaches and parents. It's sorely needed. I don't think giving this coach the BK certificate would be a good idea. Better to handle it professionally. Perhaps it would be a good idea to demote him back to an asst. coach, under a veteran coach who knows how to control himself and can serve as mentor.

Does he have any legal recourse? No, absolutely not. He's a volunteer and it's your program. Our recreation dept. suspends and bans coaches when necessary.
