    Lets see your best Title IX violations.

    100% agenda, that the ladies sports should not be treated as lesser than the boys sports. Stick by it an equal 100% And lawyers are one thing, court decisions are another, and I have yet to find a court decision that does not support what I've said. And it looks like the one I provided was...

    Lets see your best Title IX violations.

    And finally, because I am so disappointed in some of the responses. Let me give you some of the highlights that I would flip my gourd if they were said to my DD. 1. " Unless the program is successful , competitive, and promoted. There's simply no need for anything better than a couple of sets...

    Lets see your best Title IX violations.

    Here are some highlights of how title IX is supposed to protect the ladies. The findings are specific to the case but show that although facilities don't have to be equal, they must still be treated equally. Daniels v. School Bd. of Brevard County, Fla., 985 F. Supp. 1458 (M.D. Fla. 1997)...

    Lets see your best Title IX violations.

    You are contradicting yourself. "Hate to say it, but just on these pictures alone, this probably wouldn't qualify as a TitleIX violation unless there are other circumstances" "(3) other program components (the “laundry list” of benefits to and treatment of athletes). The “laundry list”...

    Lets see your best Title IX violations.

    Nothing makes me cranky like some good old favoritism towards the boys. So to get things started i give you Kearns High School in Utah. Softball And Kearns baseball Tell me that's not some inequality. Story from a mom whose daughter went there is that two Baseball players made a bet...

    If High School ball is cancelled. Then those girls can now play Travel?

    Don't know who is running your tournament, we have emails from USA, USSSA, and PGF saying everything is on hold. And the state has stepped in and said no group activities larger than 50 people.

    OTF HR. Coach hugs baserunner

    Well, thats great and all, and thats now how it went down. It's just dumb and unprofessional to do in the first place especially in High School. So my opinion is still teh same. Don't touch the the runners.

    OTF HR. Coach hugs baserunner

    Since it is my post that started this, maybe those that have provided information could answer this question. What is the High School rule book definition of "assistance"? The physical part is easy..... but what can and can't a coach do when they touch a player? Especially when it is more...

    NFHS rules Whats the penalty for an illegal bat.... Hint it's a Ghost

    Lump all these together for a single answer. He is in Utah and he doesn't lose his cool. It might help that most coaches only come up to his shoulder. The guy is a huge teddy bear. He won't let rules slip but I have never heard him lose his cool. At Halloween when tournaments include...

    #2 is just as important as #1 - High School Pitchers

    Gambler Bob, never heard of you or your famous org but you must be important to someone. Especially since this is about High School softball not whatever org this is supposed to be. You can't collect players or try to ride the success of individuals to convince players to join the team here...

    #2 is just as important as #1 - High School Pitchers

    There you go with more false information and accusations. Apparently not or you would understand the importance of a deep pitching staff. You are the one that decided to call what we have to deal with PC behavior so don't complain when people critique your inaccurate opinions. And I don't...

    This is a reason to not play for an Org. They can find others to fund the special kids.
