I think you have a big problem. Any Coach that sanctions shoves in the back to prevent lay-ups by airborne players is endangering kids. There's no easier way to break a wrist.

Having played for a great Coach in HS.....there's no strategic advanatge to pick-up dumb fouls. It only puts the other Team in Bonus quicker and usually alerts the Refs to keep an eye on the offending Team.

Trouble is that if you talk to the Coach...he might take it out on your daughter. Just try to teach her that his style differs from the viewpoint of many other people and that while she may have to try to conform to his style that it's is unacceptable by most people. Explain to her that "Winning by Any Means" whether in sports, business or politics usually ends up badly for the parties involved.

Where do these people come from?
