Or perhaps the fact that you know the people involved causes you to shift blame to the party that you like the least - in this case the coach. Ultimately, the parents are responsible for where, when, and for whom their daughter plays. They should have known the rules of the league she was playing in...they should have known that eventually she would run into a situation just like this because she was playing in a boy's league. They either chose to ignore those things or purposefully put their daughter in a position for this to happen. Either way, it's their responsibility.
Not to get into a pissing match or anything...
