Chicago Red Stars coach quits over abuse allegations

The coach of the Chicago Red Stars soccer team has resigned following new allegations he has emotionally abused players.

CHICAGO – The coach of the Chicago Red Stars soccer team has resigned over new allegations he has emotionally abused players.

Rory Dames led the Red Stars to six playoff appearances.

But now he has resigned after a shocking Washington Post report detailed how he would verbally abuse and manipulate players.

Women say his words and actions went way beyond the normal behavior of a coach. He would scream until they cry, taunting them about their love life or their abilities as mothers, according to the report.

The report also says it would make them wait all day for a five-minute meeting, instead of giving them a schedule.

In addition, he reportedly refused to allow them free time to see their families.

Dames is also accused of pressuring at least one player for regular dinners outside of work and then putting her on the bench when she started to resist.

Another shocking thing about the allegations is that some of the players went to the National Women’s Football League to ask for help, but as far as they could tell, nothing was done.

Ladies remains the president of Eclipse Select football club in the Chicago area.
