Ed, I am hoping you will allow me to respond to “Coach Control” regarding the article “Loud Coach.” First, I would like to apologize for that coach’s behavior and let you know that all us coaches from Florence do not conduct ourselves in that manner. Second, a bunch of us have complained, and our township is aware of certain coaches’ unsportsmanlike behavior, but nothing is done. Maybe if we receive more complaints the township will act.

Good Coach

The parents are the ones who can wield the pressure to effect change. If BackTalk is a catalyst, even better.—Ed. Note
