Rita said she knew the AD. In my opinion, she should express her concern to the AD, as should the parents and fans who observe this unacceptable behavior. For all Rita knows, a couple of parents have complained and one more opinion will make the difference between the AD waiting and the AD dealing with it. If the AD knows about the sitch already, and is choosing to let it continue, Rita's opinion won't make much difference.
Also, there is a huge difference between Jr. Hi girls and varsity boys. Huge difference. I disagree with every yelling and belittling anyone as a motivational tool. I just think it's wrong. But in our society it's mostly acceptable for varsity boys. But I"m sorry, middle age girls are different.
Furthermore, Rita knows these girls, and has worked with them. SHe knows that what this coach is doing isn't going to accomplish what he wants. For that reason alone, she should talk to the AD.

I do know that it won't get to that point, how? the REFVA's (see post #12 first sentence) of the world will make sure, of which they are entitled, not you as an official.
Look you're right I don't know and I already conceded the fact that this is MS girls and not boys, but again does she? Does she go to practices? Know all the other aspects of the coach/player relationship?
If she knows these girls and the situation so well as to get involved emotionally, then why is she working their games? This is exactly why we shouldn't, she's not objective.
The OP obviously started this thread seeking comment. The consensus of the posts of this thread (not just mine) say leave it alone. Her (and your) emotional closeness is clouding her (and your) objectivity.
