CERRITOS W. SOCCER Coaches - Sexual Harassment

These allegations about BW were reported on here by parents a few years ago when he had overage players on his Anaheim Surf team. It’s good to hear your voicing them now. I do believe he is still unable to coach at any level because he still has allegations pending. I’d have to look but there is a national website that tracks coaches of all different sports on their legal status.

Yes, those allegations were also mentioned while he was at VPHS. There is al mention of torrid affairs with wives from his youth teams.
The BW stories are just plain sad. The stories about the wives from the youth teams are so over the top, and just that much more sadder because they're true.

I remember the countless posts from posters on those teams defending him at every turn. Even one of the husbands whose wife slept with BW. The truth is ugly but needs to come out to protect people from predators.
 
Hi All,
This is a story that has been surfacing the past 48 hours. This story contains my experiences there a collegiate athlete and so many other young women’s story who have been affected by the actions of these coaches. I hope you all can find time to watch this story and visit my Instagram for more updates and how all the girls stories who have reached out to me to share their story. We deserve justice from these coaches who also have affiliations with high school coaching jobs, and major club teams.

I remember that too. We took a lot of heat exposing BW.
 
So I decided to google this issue and there are now articles in local online newspapers. Here is what I don't understand. The head coach and BW had, and I'm trying to be careful here with my language, in their past been investigated and in trouble for what can at the least be defined as ethically concerning behavior. Then, the athletic director at Cerritos hires both of them to be in charge of young women. Then, a prominent Catholic High School puts them in charge or young men/boys. Do these athletic directors conduct any background investigations? Do they know how to use google? If the title IX rep at Cerritos failed to investigate the claims then I cannot even fathom how many people will, and should, lose their jobs.
 
i saw It's Brent whitfield i remember the story about him from a few years ago.
He has a notorious rep. He has been on Admins and coaches radar for a long time. They all know keep kids away from him. It wasn’t from a sexual harassment standpoint but he does just about anything to recruit players. Most coaches and admins go about there business and ignore these shady types - they believe they will eventually dig their own grave. Yet, there are schools/clubs who welcome these types because they can get them players - doesn’t matter to them how they do it. All people have to go do is talk to ODP coaches, local College coaches, places he has worked to figure that out. You really only have to go to back to him using a player with modified birth certificate so he could recruit other players he wanted - that got him a state Cup. No real consequences from that or from other places allows these types to stay employed. See

Sorry you went through that. Hopefully with you standing up and telling the right people, this will get these predators out of places where they can continue to do these things. It is unfortunate the soccer (and it’s the same in other youth sports) system tends to bury these things. If you haven’t found an attorney, I suggest you do. Institutions (with deep pockets) tend to lawyer up and defend these people before admitting fault. They go after the victim and will find anything they can as ammo. I would at this time advise you not to post further. Not just because it puts you at legal risk, but also allows these people to gather more info they shouldn’t have. Law enforcement and any good attorney will advise you not to post...for now
 
Why are you wasting your time posting this on Instagram and a soccer forum? This is what the national safe sport site is for. Since the gymnastic coach abuse broke out there are laws to provide protection (Safe Sport Act). Yes, this is for minors but if he is coaching high school then it applies. There is a system in place to place complaints and get coaches listed on a public site and suspended from coaching for things like this. Also, a complaint should be filed with the college about sexual harassment. I am assuming everyone on this site knows all of this but I don't know why no one has suggested this. There are very strict laws and policies at colleges around all of this. It is time to speak up and take action. If you have evidence of this abuse or know the victims they need to come forward and file complaints. You can file a complaint at UScenterforsafesport.org . You can also pull up the data base on all the scumbag coaches that have allegations or convictions and suspensions from coaching. You can also go to this website to learn about your rights and get resources (Trusted Advisor Abuse: http://www.complaintweb.trauma-informed-california.org/

I'm grateful that she has posted this information here. Many of us come to this site for information and this is something that concerns everyone. I've never heard of the national safe sport site so thanks for that.

Thank you for coming forward Ash and please continue to stay strong.
 
I do agree with that, I am also glad that she posted this information here and it is a start. My point was, it isn't enough - victims need to seek formal process to put an end to this and these scumbags that have gotten away with this for years are put on notice and stopped. Enough is Enough
