14yo LL Player sued by coach for celebration

[Elk Grove Hurricane]

The local Sacramento radio station picked up this story this morning, they rightfully let him have it. It was good radio. If they hadn't found the story on the web I was going to call in and give the details. JNew- cbssports.com mentioned primary assumption of the risk as a defense as well, and implied that the case would soon be dismissed.

This kid was on his team too, is that right? Don't you have to sign something before you coach about liability and such?!

 

[James Smith]

I have never signed anything like that.

 

[Sweet Lou]

I have never signed anything like that.

Me either. Though I ALWAYS have to sign a liability waiver for my kids.

Someone posted on the facebook page that is still up (the old one) that he is dropping the lawsuit.

Unfortunately, the kid's parents are still out $4k in legal fees...

 

[James Smith]

I was thinking the same thing.

Lawyers always win.
