People like exiled sports journalist Graeme Joffe have been shouting this from the rooftops for years, but if you want a firsthand account, look no further than recently axed women’s national water polo coach, Seri Harris. She recently wrote a blog post titled “Axed as national team coach”, and it’s a brutal account of just how much of a mess plays out away from the public eye. The icing on the cake, was when I got told that as the Head Coach, I am allowed no say in selections. AS THE NATIONAL TEAM COACH, I WAS NOT EVEN SHOWN THE TEAM BEFORE IT GOT SIGNED OFF AND SENT IN FOR APPROVAL. A women’s National team was announced with not one female representative on staff.
