yeah so 3 quarters of my town was at this party last saturday night. it was the kids bday so he wanted to throw himself a party. some random kid was wandering the street after the party and this mom(of a total nark in our grade) driving a van asked him where he was comming from. he told her and she called the kid(who was throwing the party)'s track coach. the next morning the coach booted him becasue of are no warning policy regarding the consumption of alcohol. the coach didnt stop thier, he then went to the mayor and the superintendant. the mayor gave the police dept. some hell for not taking names( the cops gave us 15 min to get out). so now the police dept. is under heat and the school's sports director is demanding every name of every athlete that was at the party..... so far, no names were given up
but wait it gets better. somehow the information gets leaked that thier was a video of the party that someone filmed and that it was at the kids house(the one who threw the party). the pd got a search warrant and when they tried to get the tape the kid threw it out his window. the cop threatend to charge him with tampering with evidence. the pd ended up getting the tape becaseu it didn't break. so this morning, our superintendant, sports director, principal and chief of police got together and watched this tape. needless to say we were all fucked. this after noon they booted 20 athletes off of 4 diff sports. so much for our ski team. we were fuckin sick too. oh well... week before sectionals too...damn.

our snowboard team has gotten a bit smaller over the past couple days. 13 kids were hot boxing the gondola at squaw and got caught. then last night was homecoming and a few more got caught drinking. but the ski team is still strong in numbers(all 8 of us).

Sue the shit out of that coach. And everyone else you have a clean shot at. You live in the states, after all... Why are you people so dense as to think officials can get away with anything? There is such a thing as abuse of power. Contacting colleges to get them to deny scholarships, for example, is defamation. Talk to a good lawyer, he'd probably be glad to help you for a big share of the settlement.

thats how it is at my school too. unless you show up drunk or high to school or a school event (or your a dorm student) they can't and won't do anything...

Ya, I know I sound like a tool as everybody has already said. I don't agree with the training rules that if you're not on school grounds of affecting the team at all that you should be in trouble for drinking, but you signed a contract that said you wouldnt and that means you can get in trouble. You did, you have to deal with it, I don't personally agree, but you broke a contract with the school.

The point, of course, is that it shouldn't have gone beyond the school. Talk about low standards of law enforcement. That search warrant should never have been granted.

^^yes this is true, but i just got out of a meeting with a cop and my principal and from what i understand is that the school was aloud to review this tape becasue they were helping the police name the suspects involved. and thats legal... they were helping the investigation i guess.
