Couldn't agree more. I had a rec game with two 7th grade girls teams. This is a recreational, not competitive, league. One of the coaches started yelling at his daughter really bad. During a timeout, he was screaming at her in the huddle. I went over to him and told him to stop. He said she was his daughter and he would talk to her any way he wanted.
I told him that on this day, in this gym, during this game, he was a coach and she was a player in our program and we did not allow this kind of behavior - period. He started to give me an arguement and I tossed him. He was suspended for the season and removed from the Board of Directors.
