I had a big problem with a certain coach last year. I should have T'd him up and didn't. I admit the mistake in not taking care of business. After the game he came into the locker room to shake my partner's hand and totally ignored me. This was clearly an ethics violation as he didn't belong in our locker room. I reported the violation to my board and it in turn was reported to the coach's Athletic Director. I am not sure what came of the report and what if any sanctions were placed upon the coach. I'm sure he was just verbally admonished.
Today, I volunteered my time to work his team's scrimmage. We do not get paid for working scrimmages. I just wanted to send him a message....

Most of the time we do, at least, have a separate room to dress in...but I know of at least one place where we have to walk right by the Coach (in our birthday suits)  ,if we want to shower(and I always want to shower after a Varsity Game), as he is sitting at his desk calling in the game to the local radio and TV station.There is another place we go that, if we want to shower, we have to actually shower with the players...this can be a good time for some "small" talk, but that depends alot on who you are officiating with.  I dunno, around here, some coaches may come into our Locker Room briefly (usually when we share one) and say something...but, their attitude better be good or their outta there.

I was just trying to show him that "I was bigger and better than him." Why, do you think I didn't accomplish that?

There may, however, be something in my post informational... that coaches in these parts aren't really considered "unethical" if they stop by for a quick "good game guys" or whatever. Anyway, have another cup of coffee BBR...and think about how bad your Carolina Panthers are going to get beat by MY Seahawks in the NFC championship game.

The area may even be the coaches office. If a coach does come in, he shouldn't address the officials in a negative manner. The coach came in and sent me a message by congratulating my partner and shaking his hand while he ignored me. If you were at the game and witnessed his behavior on the court, you would know what his intentions were! I did!

But sharing showers? We get own showers even with 8 year olds:P not to mention games containg some trace of basketball :P (we've never been that small have we? :P) No, wait a sec. Once I had to either share or wait til the visitors were done showering (they had won big though, and I made a good game, no problem) I waited though :P it was a girls team, I'm not a girl lol, slight problem sharing shower :P Other then that, I've ALWAYS had a private locker and shower room. I consider that a minimal requirment really, esspecially if you've handed out a T or two, and the game ended really close.

The only way I would let a coach get near me while I was undressing would be if she was really, really cute.

Yep, let it go. The longer you remember and act on your emotions the longer the grudge continues.
We all have "special" coaches that are memorable for one thing or the other - nothing wrong with a good memory. But get over the "me versus coach" - it'll only keep you down on that level and even if you win in the end, what have you won?
