Adult zealousness over kids' sports MILWAUKEE, WI (wuwm) - There has been another incident in which an adult may have overreacted at a children's athletic activity. A youth football coach has been charged with battery and disorderly conduct for his treatment of a 12 year old player at practice. Barbara Meyer is an associate professor in UWM's Department of Human Movement, with a focus on sports psychology. She says sports can dramatically impact some people's behavior, because many have participated in athletics or have a family member or friend who has.
