The first thing I thought is: why is she flying a basket to begin with?
I know there are more score sheets than just UCA, but I haven’t seen a HS score sheet of any organization in years where baskets were worth the risk.
Regardless:
Team has a culture problem if the concern of the leaders is more focused on their ability to practice/perform than the well-being of their teammate.
That would be my biggest concern.
Personally, as a coach, I make an attempt to check on any athlete with any degree of injury that occurs at practice. I also manage my own injuries and leave the trainer out 95% of the time, as I’m better educated in such things than she is. In some places, it’s more common for athletes who are injured to be the sole responsibility of the trainer. The trainer communicates with the coach about the nature of the injury and the expected rehab time. We also have an understanding that I’m often leaving practice and heading to work (the kids see me in my work uniform and know why). So sometimes I don’t get to check up on them until the next morning. It would be hard for me to judge a coach based on their timelines of a response to text messages. Not all situations are created equally.
