The organization should be held accountable for what coaches associated with them do. The organization shouls accept this responibility and do everything humanly possible to prevent this from happening. I am sure there were some signs from the coach they should have picked up on.
But, parents don't depend on anyone to protect your children but yourselves. Educate them watch for signs of misbehavior on part of coaches. As you can see just because a coach is a woman does not mean your child is safe.
Joe, if I have spoken unjustly bad about you i am sorry. Please think about the children first instead of thinking of the organization first.

Did the parents see something then go to the org and they didn't do anything about it? If that happened, then the org needs to fix things, but if it did not....what do you want them to do besides doing a backround check on their own and an ACE backround check that was done.
To me, it seems like you are pissed because your dd didn't make one of their teams or you wouldn't have brought up something that DIDN'T happen a year ago when the coach was associated with the team.
What matters is what happened to the girl that has come forward. What does matter is that if this is true then the coach needs to be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law and that this girl is taken care of. What does matter is that if there are any other victims out there, they need to come forward.

Some of your points are true. others are crap. read my previous posts for more info. the only thing im pissed about is that this happened to this poor girl and no body seems to care enough to talk about it.
What they CAN do is to TALK about what happened with their girls. EDUCATE them on these issues so that they can PREVENT it from happening to anyone else. have a meeting with the parents to discuss ways to keep this from happening. there ARE things that CAN be done besides a background check. Even if this didnt happen when she coached with this particular team or org. does not mean that it is not happening within some other team or org. and by people talking about it in the open gets people thinking about prevention. and it makes it a SAFE place for the girls to be open up about it if it does happen . because it happens a LOT more than people realize and the girl or bot NEVER speaks about it. this means the predator keeps preying .
as long as we have people focused on my means for gaining attention to this issue we are getting no where.
would any one of you even read this post if i had not been dramatic and ugly ? no, you would have said , eh, i already heard this. lets go on to some drama or stupid ranking poll.
