coach benches senior player from fist game for missing practice senior was working on culminating project?

Question

Tell me if I'm wrong! A high school fastpitch softball coach benches senior varsity pitcher from first game. Senior missed a practice because she had to work on her senior culminating project in order to graduate.senior was helping a crisis center in Bellingham put on a auction/dinner for 300 people for charity to help familes. The set up began at 9am-3:00 then from 5-9pm she went to her job then from9-midnight
she went back to help put things away. This was the day she was supposed to go to practice She explained to the coach but she benceh her and told her she could play last inning but didn't let her. Basically the coach lied. what happened to school work first.You fail your senior project you don't graduate.Another coach said to a player when uniforms were being handed out , which senior paid for to go switch with senior she like's to wear her pants tight.How unethical for a coach to say this when student are supposed to look up to their coaches.what is wrong with people

Answer 1

If schoolwork comes first then she should realize that giving up a game of softball is a small price to pay for graduating. The rule is if you miss practice, you don't play. No exceptions. She should suck it up and get over it.

As for what the coach said regarding the player's pants, perhaps he/she was trying to playfully tell the player that her pants are a bit tight without being direct or mean. another moment to laugh it off.

Answer 2

Welcome to real life!!! Not everything in life is fair if she would have been a good student she would have deligated her time better and been able to get her work done and make practice. But its a good lesson she should learn from it and the coach isnt being paid to be truthfull most coaches are paid to win, sounds tough but its a realistic fact.

Answer 3

Sounds like she has too much on her plate.
