Interesting development in Boiling Spprings with the Title IX lawsuit. I agree with some points in the lawsuit. Shin guards should be provided by the school. As a former coach at Boiling Springs I remember not getting equal access to facilities or equal amount of equipment. In my short coaching career at Boiling SPrings a 'acting' Athletic Director at Boiling Springs bought us some adidas swim shorts one year to play in. He told me we should show appreciation to him for getting us a good deal on shorts. Of course his team (another sport) got brand new uniforms (home and away) and new warm ups. Parents at Boiling Springs were very committed, very supportive and loyal. This lawsuit may improve equality in other programs in the state as well.
