Ringleader in Manitoba High School Hockey Hazing Complaint Loses Suspension Appeal The Sport Dispute Resolution Centre of Canada's decision to uphold a lengthy suspension for a Manitoba high school hockey player involved in hazing incidents has shed light on the disturbing trend of hazing and bullying within youth sports.
The case raises broader questions about the culture of competition and the treatment of young athletes.
The player, implicated in "physical, psychological and sexual maltreatment" of his rookie teammates, was involved in assigning tasks to younger players and was also assigned a rookie himself.
