There are some parents at children's sporting events here in Canada whose behavior is so intense that teenage officials have to wear body cameras to record it for legal purposes. The intensity of feeling you point out in this essay is very much fueling it- particularly among those parents who wish to have their children pursue the sport as a career.

I wouldn't be surprised if some of the portable coffee mugs they carry to games and practices had shots of booze in them.
