This is exactly the type incident that soccer does not need. I understand the need to go through the proper channels and that Mr. Sweet has to reamin above the fray as president,but I am sure that both Bridge and SCYSA will dole out the proper punishment.
I don't get the alleged part though. Either he slapped the kid or he did not. The players parent ran across the field right after the incident- this is not something that is just made up or is a mirage. If the incident does turn out to be proven, I hope the coach is banned from coaching in South Carolina and that he is punished to the extent of the law.You absolutely do not touch a student in a classroom or a kid on the field.
