CASE STUDY #7
A player on the team is a discipline problem. He does not skate and seems to be a slow learner or have some type of learning problem since he does not respond to the coaches instructions. Suddenly he uses his stick like a bat against another player's head. The coach finally talks to the parents and learns that the child has a medical problem involving a learning disability and a chemical imbalance.
Questions:
- How do you handle the learning disability?
- How does the coach handle the chemical imbalance?
- How does the coach interact with the parents?
- What are the legal responsibilities of the coach?
