To say I was treated fair, is far from the truth! Not one person took in consideration what was on the line! My club (brand new this year) can't believe what happened and the way it happened. My kids parents are bewildered as to what could have provoked such a response from a ref, and I recieved my first warning from a ref and my first discharge from a tournament in 10 seconds. We started our club THIS year! I have acted as the head coach/part time club pres/fund raiser organizer/ and dad. I've put my heart and soul into trying to make this a success.Everyone from our organization has! I'm heart broken that I can't help these boys achieve there dreams.I write these words with mixed emotions. I never missed a practice or a tournament.I gave 100% of myself to this sport over the last year. What I have given over the last year does not deserve to be taken away by a ref that was having a bad day. After I left our meeting I found out that this particular ref(on mat 3) had a fight with another coach( and several arguments over the day) ON THE MAT. He said and I quote," Why do you have to be such as A##." The coach responded by saying shut the F up. This was a heated discussion that of course took place at the table.No one was thrown out. I was told " i'm afraid your a victim of circumstance."Beacuse I didn't approach the table with my concerns. Yet later I found out that it was a judgement call and I couldn't call the ref over for a judgement call. I can only call him over for a rules question. The individuals who sealed my fait even said they were in agreement that there was no raised voices or curse words used when I addressed the ref.SO everyone who reads this post can be the judge.One more thing was also pointed out.I was not a coach involved with the match beacuse I was not mat side ( 2 other coaches were) so that should make me a by stander just like any other coach. How many of you have voiced your opinion while watching a match and got thrown out of a tournament! Very few I bet. I was singled out by a pissed off ref who took his anger out on me. " You know what really happened ref and so does every other coach who saw what happened Saturday. You should be ASHAMED of yourself."
