I would make certain that the assignor heard about it from me BEFORE hearing about it from coaches.
Just curious, Rocky (see related thread about "tattling"), what would you say to the assignor? I mean specifically, what actual words would you say? [/B][/QUOTE]

Juulie, you can read my generic response in the tattling thread...in this specific instance, I would call the supervisor and say "Dave, we had a problem tonight, and I'm sure you're gonna hear from the schools." Then I would explain it exactly the way it happened - just the facts, no opinions or comments added...after the facts are in, the supervisor will ask questions and I will answer them absolutely honestly - including ones about "Why didn't you stop him, DJ?" And there will be questions...as I said in the other post, it's not to get anyone in trouble, but the supervisor needs to know BEFORE the schools start calling and yelling about it.
