What did he just say?!


Question Posted Monday March 3 2008, 7:32 pm

Ok I'm 16/f and I play club volleyball. I have a new coach this year and at first I though he was a little odd. After a tournament yesterday coach was sitting us all down one by one and talking to us about our play. I said I had to keep control of my positive outlook on the game and he says and I quote. "You just have to watch what you give. There are only two things in life you can give: your integrity and your virginity." Now at first I let that go cause I thought he was joking but the look on his face said otherwise. He was using all these youthisms about sex at the same time I just couldn't shake it off as something else. Now my coach is maybe 36 so I REALLY think that's just down right creepy.. so is he just putting his foot in his mouth to be hip, or is he just a creep?

Sorry about the length of the question,
Thanks

Well, it could be either of those things, or it could be that he's trying to teach you something other than just volleyball. Kinda weird, I will admit, though.

He is right that those are a couple things in life that only you can give away. I will admit that, too.

What I would do in your shoes? Tell your parents what he said. See what they think. Let them take care of the problem if there is one. I mean, if he's making you uncomfortable, you surely aren't the only one. This isn't something you should deal with on your own. If he's a pervert or something, adults need to take care of the problem.

i agree that that's creepy, you're right he shouldn't be mixing up sports and sex talk, it's not even his business or responsibility.the fact that he had this on his mind as the best analogy is kinda disturbing,i'd just not get too close to him or make much talk if you can. but don't let that detract from your game! but..if this really does make you uncomfortable as time progresses, even if you're the only one who feels it and noone else,then it's okay to leave the team,there are sleazy men everywhere,you're not a coward for not wanting to put up with it.
hope this was any help.

hi,

i think that it could be either one, but either way its not good!
your coach isnt there to be your best friend.
is there anyone you can tell about this? principal? guidance counslor?
sombody needs to know. maybe if sombody just talks to him hell stop?

i would definately stay away from anybody who talks like that. keep it a coach : student relationship
