This is an excerpt from the recent @Newsday article about the decline in the number of sports officials. Note that a solution is political...SMH
"The problem of spectator abuse has reached the legislative level. A bill was introduced in the New York State Legislature in January that would create the crime of aggravated harassment of a sports official, a Class B misdemeanor, punishable by up to three months in jail along with a fine, community service and an order of protection. The bill hasn’t moved further since.
The bill was also introduced in January 2023, and didn’t progress from committee. It is sponsored by Assemb. William Conrad (R-Tonawanda) and Sen. Patrick Gallivan (R-Elma). Under Albany’s rules, bills sponsored by Republicans in the Democrat-led legislature usually need Democrat co-sponsors to advance."
The bill needs a CO-SPONSOR!!! WAKE UP!!!
Timeout, Coaches!
If you don’t #BenchBadBehavior at high school athletic events, how can you expect anyone else to?
ALL EYES ARE ON YOU.
Show students, parents and fans how to compete with class. https://t.co/5Fai5uQOtX
Negativity. Immaturity. Aggressive behavior.
When high school athletic events are canceled because of bad fan behavior, everyone loses.
ESPECIALLY our students.
Let’s #BenchBadBehavior and preserve civility in our schools! https://t.co/c6aCh0vfGH
