Re: Forceful Intimidation

It's not your job to get your coach (OR your sister) a date.

There IS a power problem here, but you can handle it by telling your parents (secrets that are out aren't secrets).

I know it sounds sexist, but if your dad or uncle are around, have them help ... not by threatening Coach in any way, but by having one of those man-to-man conversations, unintelligible to women, but which seem to work:

Dad: "This here is my *daughter*."

Coach: "Got it."

What I hear from you is that this is a problem because the implication has already been made and you don't want to have to sell your sister to get field time. My advice there is to "bring it" in practice and when you're on the field, but let the chips fall where they may.

Tell your coach it's none of your business and your sister doesn't listen to you, anyway (probably true). If he persists or makes any further comment, tell your folks and then the school. At that point, whether or not he takes it out on you in ANY way, it's a problem the school needs to know about.

If the coach is that lame that he needs you to get a date, well, then maybe someone else needs to do the coaching. This is a far cry from locker room silliness.
