A group of female volleyball players went on a team building with their coaches and officials in a private resort. The team building went awry when the players got intoxicated. The officials of the team were able to convince the players to show flesh, all in the spirit of fun. The players gamely took their clothes off in exchange for a considerable amount of money. To cover up the shame, everyone decided to keep the whole incident a secret.
The incident, for me, is truly a sad event in Philippine sports. It is so wrong in so many levels. But what motivated me to finally bring the incident out in the open is the sight of one of the coaches in the team building coaching a school in the current UAAP tournament. The coach did not lift a finger to stop the incident to protect the players. And yet, he continues to handle a group of collegiate female volleyball players.
I am just disturbed that the coach continues to enjoy the trust of a school despite what he did. Or more aptly, what he did not do.
