There's a gap here that I understand, having lived in six states.
In Wisconsin (where GoodwillRef lives), we frequently get assigned games by coaches and athletic directors (sometimes the coach is the athletic director, as well). Contacting a coach by email is not unheard of here.
When I lived in Tennessee, I'd never dream of contacting a school directly. It was unheard of.
Another regional difference, to be sure. That said, I wouldn't be emailing a coach to tell him we kicked one. I'd rather wait and tell him in person next time I saw him.
