There were two goalies and one remaining spot. The coach picked his own son. Hilarity ensued. Sure, it was rep, but it was still pee-wee.
Now, in no way am I condoning his actions -- sounds like the guy has s bit of a rep for this -- but maybe they should look at who can and cannot coach a competitive team or, at the very least, the selection process should never come to a father having to pick between his son and another player.
Sure, the coach should have input, but having the decision made by an arbitrary third party is a better way to go, isn't it?
