I had that school, lower level, again on February 11. So she is going to find someone that had a site that is close in proximity to my game and switch us. She also said she hasn't read my report on the issue and she is definitely not siding with the school.

She further said, that her boss did look at the report, but that she specificially has not. Consequently, she didn't know if I could have handled it differently, but felt because of the nature of the coaches behavior, it was best for all parties involved.

This is a pretty reasonable policy. She isn't just taking games away from you - she is switching you out. That makes sense for you, her, and the school. Now if she won't send you back there next season, or won't even assign you that school on the road, then there is probably more of an issue there. But this seems like she is trying to take care of you and the school. I would let it slide ( and believe me, I have had to deal with some crazy assignors in the past).

I agree. It seemed to me a reasonable explanation. I will definitely keep my eyes on this next season but for this happening the first time I will give her the benefit of the doubt.
