It just seems that there are many guilty parties here.
1. The head coach of the losing team. For having them in a division or a leauge that they are not capable of competing in (I could be wrong here, I'm not sure of their record but just attempting 7 shots all game tell me they have no one to dribble the ball).
2. Leauge director or commish. For either letting the team play in the division. Not briefing other teams coaches about the nature of the team with the special needs. Maybe adapt some sort of mercy rules so game like this don't get out of hand again.
3. Obviously the other teams coach, for not calling the dogs off. At some point just have your guys stand in a stationary position andlet them score a few points.
4. Referees: when it's starting to get out of hand, call some fouls (even if they are phantom) to keep the other team from pressing. Also to get the other team to the line and maybe get a few points on the board.
It's easy just to blame the coach (he is the biggest culprit), but there are other people here that let these kids down too.
