Jackson parents walk out after coach shoves player

A Jackson, MN middle school basketball game took a shocking turn when a coach, furious over a last-second shot in a blowout, screamed at and shoved one of his own players in front of a packed gym. Witnesses say the coach’s outburst had nothing to do with the score, but everything to do with basic respect and adult behavior. For families watching, it was a harsh reminder that youth sports should be about growth and encouragement—not public humiliation or physical aggression. How do you think communities should hold coaches accountable for crossing the line? #Education #JacksonMN #YouthSports
