I would like to hear most about this story. Seems unfair to punish the innocent kids in the program. Maybe it was an impossible impasse that prevented the season from progressing but if there are kids/parents uninvolved, let them finish the season.

Yea that's a tough one. I can't imagine it was unanimous, and you just hope it wasn't one or two parents that ruined it for everyone. Oddly their record isn't that bad. Generally when you see these things it's a team that's lost about every game. Hopefully the Super made it clear these decisions are made on a case by case basis. Once you introduce quitting, it's easier to do it again and again, and that's never the message you want to send.

“The decision was not made without a thorough review of the dynamics involved and an investigation of events, including those which predated the incident of last week,”

I think your answer lies somewhere within this quote from the Superintendent.
