What? You don't like the title? Seems a little over-the-top? It might be, but what's going on in gyms and on fields across the country is shameful. Baltimore's ConneXions School for the Arts and Washington, D.C.'s Cardozo Academy met for a boys high school basketball match-up. Fans were unhappy with the officiating. Players joined in. A coach got shoved and the melee you see in the video happened between, players, coaches and fans (email subscribers click here).
You can have the tools to prevent this type of thing from happening in your league. Register for and attend the St. Louis Youth Sports Summit on January 14, 2012 at Maryville University. Local and national experts will show you how to improve the sports experience for your kids rather than have it devolve into madness. Go to sportsmanship.org or call 314-345-5130 to register. Also, be sure to check out Page 2 of this blog to find out how you can earn grant funding for your organization just by attending the event. It won't get better until we make it better. Until next time...
Be a Good Sport!
