This is a copy of a letter that was recently sent to certain parents of student athletes involved in Bath High School Girls Soccer.
Dear Concerned Parent:
This letter is being sent to you to solicit your input regarding issues that may, or may not, need to be addressed with Bath High School Sports. This particular letter is being sent to those parents of students who are involved with the Girls Soccer Program at Bath High School.
It has come to our attention that Head Coach Morgan Lashaway has instituted some rules for her Girls Varsity Soccer Team and that the Junior Varsity Coach Rachael Warrington has been asked to have her team abide by the same. These rules are not those of the Ohio High School Athletic Association, the Western Buckeye League, the Administrative Rules of Bath Schools, or the Code of Conduct of Athletes for Bath Schools. The Athletic Director of Bath Schools allows varsity coaches of each sport to create and institute team conduct rules of their own as-long-as these rules do not conflict with any imposed regulations from one of the authorities listed above.
In order to understand the issues with rules set forth by Coach Lashaway and how they might be affecting the experience of your children, please respond to this request via one of the following methods:
· Visit our Blog at http://bathsportsparents.blogspot.com/ and post a comment
· Email us at bathwildcat@gmail.com
All responses will be kept as confidential as possible unless/until we receive your permission to use them as may be needed. Your input is greatly appreciated.
Sincerely,
Bath Sports Parents

My kid is on JV. She plays just to play. JV should NOT be under rules of Lashaway (she isn't JV coach) and kids would have more fun. JV don't count anyway so Lashaway should leave them alone! It ain't like she cares.
I have ALL my children currently enrolled in Bath Schools and bath athletic programs. It concerns me very much at the current direction things are headed. What ever happened to a well-rounded education and allow kids to participate in areas that interest them. At what age is a child supposed to choose between music, sports, community service?
Is this headed to the loss of individual freedoms to choose.
Should I wait for Boy/Girl Scouts to release "contract" not to participate in other activities while being a member? Is being elected to Student Council ban you from being a member of the marching band?
These are all things that need to be considered by our school leadership when interviewing potential candidates to lead our children. Coaches, teachers, leaders and administrators are there to provide good expamles and foster our children's growth and education.
I'm a graduate of Bath School and used to be pround that my children were going to get the same, if not better, education that I recieved. If the current trend continues there needs to be changes before a mass exodus occurs.
