A coach at Ivy Hawn Charter School For The Arts, named Rob Davina Underwood, took to Facebook to share something awful that happened during the school’s volleyball game.
Rob has been coaching for over a decade, i.e., 16 years to be precise, and over these years, he said this was one of the worst things he has ever seen.
He started the post strongly, writing,
Attention everyone. We need your help identifying a man who did one of the most disgraceful things ive ever seen in my 16 years of coaching.

He went on to describe what happened at the game while discussing a questionable call that had him furious.
During an official’s timeout in a quiet gym, while everyone was sorting out a close call on the court, a guy from the other side suddenly stood up and started yelling at one of the female coaches.
To a group of middle school girls playing volleyball from a Christian private school, the guy yelled like an insult:
what are we doing coach, what happened to Jesus?!

The words hit hard, and being called out that way in public made them feel ashamed and attacked for something they believe in.
Above all, the comments had some of the girls in tears. Underwood called it obscene and totally out of line, writing:
It was obscene, uncalled for, and the whole school should be ashamed of their representation through this individual.

Underwood isn’t letting this slide and is asking everyone to help track down the man who made the statement so they can report him properly.
He boldly penned:
We need to find him, and report him. We will not have our girls subjected to this kind of attack and abuse while playing a game. Kids need to be protected from people that will stoop to this level to be hateful.

“Unsportsmanlike conduct towards another program should not be tolerated. Especially attacking young girls’,” Rob added.
Jessica Bratcher, one of the parents, wrote, “Thank you Underwood Family for ALWAYS protecting our kids…!!“
Whereas, Lovely LJ said, “Oh my goodness. What a creep!!! I’m so sorry you all had to experience this. Utterly horrible. God bless you for being the beautiful Christ loving woman you are!“
