At least two people were killed and hundreds more were injured in Paris following a European soccer championship, as protesters waved Palestinian flags and clashed with police.
Chaos erupted across the city after thousands of people took to the streets to celebrate Paris Saint-Germain winning the Champions League, the most prestigious title in European soccer. Videos and photos from the riots showed people clashing with police, crashing through barriers, destroying vehicles, climbing monuments, and causing mayhem.
Protesters waived Palestinian flags amid the chaos, following an anti-Israel protest during the championship match in Munich. Paris Saint-Germain fans unfurled a massive banner calling for an end to the “genocide” in Gaza, a display that could result in a 10,000 euro fine for the soccer club. Other Paris Saint-Germain fans were seen waving Palestinian flags and wearing Palestinian scarves, according to <a href="https://www.thejc.com/news/world/psg-fans-wave-stop-genocide-in-gaza-banner-during-champions-league-final-bfd29tzj">The Jewish Chronicle</a>.
Videos also show rioters waving Algerian, Tunisian, and Moroccan flags.

Paris Saint-Germain topped Inter Milan 5-0, becoming the first French team to win the Champions League trophy in over three decades.
As the celebration descended into chaos, French authorities cracked down and arrested hundreds of people. Two people died in the tumult: a 17-year-old boy who was stabbed in the chest in the nearby town of Dax and a 23-year-old man who was hit by a vehicle while riding a scooter, according to the <a href="https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/ckgqyg325gno">BBC</a>.
The French Interior Ministry said that 559 people were arrested. Officials reported that 192 people were injured.

There is no credible evidence to suggest that Israel is committing a genocide in Gaza. Former Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin, who served in the Biden administration, <a href="https://www.politico.com/news/2024/04/09/us-has-seen-no-evidence-that-israel-has-committed-genocide-austin-says-00151241">concluded</a> last year that the United States does not “have any evidence of genocide” in Gaza. An analysis of Gaza Health Ministry data conducted last year by the Associated Press found that over 60% of reported deaths among Palestinians were either adult males or had no reported gender.
Only 38% of casualties were women or children, according to data from the Gaza Health Ministry, which is run by Hamas and is an unreliable source of data on the war in Gaza. The health ministry’s own data, however, has <a href="https://www.fdd.org/analysis/2024/06/07/new-report-determines-percentage-of-civilian-casualties-has-fallen-sharply-in-gaza/">belied</a> the health ministry’s claim that more than 70% of Palestinian casualties in the war have been either women or children.

A driver crashed his vehicle into a crowd of parade-goers in Liverpool, England, on Monday as thousands of soccer fans celebrated the city’s football club.
Police said a man rammed his vehicle through a crowded street, knocking down and running over pedestrians before he was stopped. Police <a href="https://www.merseyside.police.uk/news/merseyside/news/2025/may-2025/update-police-incident-water-street-liverpool-city-centre/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">confirmed</a> that they had arrested “a 53-year-old white British man from the Liverpool area.”
“The scenes in Liverpool are appalling — my thoughts are with all those injured or affected,” British Prime Minister Keir Starmer said in a post on X. “I want to thank the police and emergency services for their swift and ongoing response to this shocking incident.”
“I’m being kept updated on developments and ask that we give the police the space they need to investigate,” he added.
Video of the incident <a href="https://x.com/TRobinsonNewEra/status/1927062568557826334" target="_blank" rel="noopener">shows</a> a gray van knocking a slew of pedestrians out of the way as it appeared to swerve into the crowd. Another angle appeared to <a href="https://x.com/TRobinsonNewEra/status/1927068452679827949" target="_blank" rel="noopener">show</a> at least one person trapped beneath the car as emergency workers surrounded the area.
Video of the suspected driver’s arrest showed a team of police officers keeping the crowd back. Several men appeared to rush officers as if trying to get their hands on the suspect.

“Then people started rushing to go after the driver and they tried to break the car.

We were very confused. Some of my friends were down there and the car was so near them. It was a horrible scene, nobody was expecting it.”
Thousands of fans lined a 10-mile long parade route on Monday after Liverpool Football Club won the English Premier League. The club locked up the title last month before the end of the season, but players hoisted the Premier League trophy on Sunday.
“We are in direct contact with Merseyside Police regarding the incident on Water Street which happened towards the end of the trophy parade earlier this evening,” the club <a href="https://x.com/LFC/status/1927078543164342468" target="_blank" rel="noopener">said</a> in a statement after the vehicle attack.
“Our thoughts and prayers are with those who have been affected by this serious incident,” it continued. “We will continue to offer our full support to the emergency services and local authorities who are dealing with this incident.”

U.S. men’s soccer star <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/top-usa-soccer-player-does-trump-dance-after-goal" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Christian Pulisic</a> has been hit by writers with major news outlets after he celebrated making the first goal in the team’s victory against Jamaica by rocking the viral “Trump” dance move following President-elect Donald Trump’s victory.
After the game, Pulisic confirmed that it wasn&#8217;t political when he did the “Trump Dance,&#8221; which he said “everyone’s doing” and he thought was &#8220;<a href="https://www.foxnews.com/sports/us-soccer-star-christian-pulisic-insists-trump-dance-not-political-thought-funny">funny</a>.&#8220; However, writers with Forbes and The Athletic attacked him for it and wrote that he might come to “regret it.”
<a href="https://www.forbes.com/sites/ianquillen/2024/11/19/usmnts-christian-pulisic-may-come-to-regret-trump-dance-celebration/">Forbes columnist</a> Ian Nicholas Quillen suggested Pulisic should keep the focus on the game rather than draw attention to Trump and questions about other teammates&#8217; eligibility given where the president-elects stands on immigration.
&#8220;But all things being equal, Pulisic and his American teammates would probably rather the focus stay on the soccer they play,&#8221; Quillen wrote. &#8220;On Monday night, their captain made that tougher.&#8221;
Tim Weah and Yunus Musah qualify for the team based on birthright citizenship, <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/sports/us-soccer-star-christian-pulisic-faces-scrutiny-trump-dance">Fox News</a> noted.

<a href="https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5934687/2024/11/20/christian-pulisic-donald-trump-dance-usmnt/">The Athletic writer Jeff Reuter </a>wrote that the soccer captain should “consider how their actions will be perceived by their teammates and others.&#8221;
&#8220;He may not realize how Trump’s views on immigration could impact his dual-national teammates and their families,” Reuter wrote. &#8220;Regardless, this is a case where a dance conveys a meaning well beyond a simple gesture. With his nation co-hosting the World Cup in 2026, having the captain and face of the USMNT paying homage to Trump carries outsized subtext, intended or not.&#8221;

&#8220;It doesn’t matter if Pulisic wants that responsibility to consider perception. That comes with being a leader,” he added. “He can cite eagerness to embrace that type of role but in light of Monday’s dance move, he’d be wise to consider what that distinction truly entails.&#8221;
Pulicic made <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/top-usa-soccer-player-does-trump-dance-after-goal">headlines</a> on Monday night at the Concacaf Nations League Quarterfinals in St. Louis after he <a href="https://x.com/JonnyRoot_/status/1858686073876160515">kicked</a> the ball over the goalkeeper’s head to land it in the back of the net and take the U.S. up 1-0 in the game.
After the soccer star made the goal, he ran out of the goalie box and back out onto the field, where he stopped and did the “Trump” dance — making two fists and twisting his hips — which has become a viral sensation.
It became a trend on social media after supporters made videos of themselves doing the same dance moves that Trump often did when he danced to the Village People’s “Y.M.C.A.” at his numerous campaign rallies.
NFL players from across the league have also started celebrating their individual victories by doing the <a href="https://x.com/TrumpWarRoom/status/1858267401533714552">dance</a>.

Hall of Fame football legend <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/brett-favre">Brett Favre</a> weighed in on whether the NFL will crack down on players who have celebrated victories by doing the viral “Trump” dance.
On Tuesday, speaking to <a href="https://x.com/foxnews/status/1858903118349476245?s=46&amp;t=yVg_AIbZC0FnyCtU4qPVYw">Fox News</a>, the 55-year-old former Green Bay Packers star QB was asked about the dance that’s sweeping the sports world and whether he thinks the league will fine players or institute some kind of ban to get <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/nfl-reportedly-looking-into-fine-against-bosa-for-flashing-maga-hat-on-tv" target="_blank" rel="noopener">players to stop showing support</a> on the field for Trump.
“I find it hard to believe that the NFL would crack down on this ‘Trump’ dance,” Favre told the outlet. “I really do. I would hope that they wouldn’t.”
NFL players from across the league have also started celebrating their individual victories by doing the <a href="https://x.com/TrumpWarRoom/status/1858267401533714552">dance</a>, which has become a viral sensation.

It became a trend on social media after supporters made videos of themselves doing the same dance moves that Trump often did when he danced to the Village People’s “Y.M.C.A.” at his numerous campaign rallies.
Las Vegas Raiders tight end Brock Bowers did the Trump-esque dance moves when he scored a touchdown on Sunday, after he caught a 23-yard pass late in the third quarter to give the Raiders 12 points against the Miami Dolphins&#8217; 17.

But Bowers wasn’t the only NFL player rocking the dance moves.

Tennessee Titans players Calvin Ridley and Nick Westbrook-Ikhine busted out the Trump moves ahead of what appeared to be a touchdown during the team’s game against the Minnesota Vikings.

Top USA Soccer Player Does 'Trump' Dance After Goal

Another girl’s soccer team has refused to play against the team that’s allowed a biological male to play with them, despite a law in New Hampshire that says kids can only compete on a team that corresponds with their biological sex.
Last week, varsity members of the Catholic Bishop Brady High School in Concord refused to show up for its game against the public school Kearsage Regional High School in North Sutton after a judge ruled that the nearly 6-foot-tall trans-identifying goalie — who goes by the name of Maelle Jacques (Jr) — would be allowed to compete on the girl’s team, the <a href="https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-13982591/Catholic-school-soccer-team-boycotts-match-transgender-goalie.html">Daily Mail</a> reported.
“Bishop Brady HS Varsity Girls Soccer Team STANDS UP for fairness in sports!&#8221; The <a href="https://portal.momsforliberty.org/news/bishop-brady-girls-soccer-pulls-out-of-game-against-team-with-trans-player/">Moms for Liberty group</a> of Hillsborough County wrote. “These brave athletes in Concord, NH boycotted a game with a male player on the opposing team, saying NO to unfair competition. Let’s support their courage and commitment to protecting women’s sports!”
Earlier this year, Jacques was prevented from playing on the girl’s team because the state restricts trans-identifying students from competing on the team that doesn&#8217;t align with their biological sex. 
However, in September federal judge Landya McCafferty — appointed by then-President Barack Obama — blocked the ban to allow Maelle to play on the girl’s team and alongside them in the locker room. The block remains in play until a final ruling is made, which hasn’t occurred yet, <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/sports/girls-soccer-team-boycotts-game-vs-transgender-goalie-federal-judge-let-play-trump-promises-ban">Fox News</a> noted.
Former collegiate swimmer and outspoken women’s sports activist <a href="https://x.com/Riley_Gaines_/status/1847549813165887794">Riley Gaines</a> praised the team for refusing to play.

“Bishop Brady high school varsity girls soccer team in NH forfeits and accepts a loss against opposing team whose star player is a man,” Gaines wrote. “They are the second team in the district to do so. This is the way. #BOYcott.”
Several weeks ago, several members of Hillsboro-Deering varsity team also refused to play against Kearsage’s team, as previously <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/girls-soccer-team-refuses-to-play-team-with-biological-male-following-similar-move-by-university">reported</a>.
“This isn’t about transgenderism,” Heather Thyng, the mother of a Hillsboro-Deering player who refused to play, told the outlet. “This is about biology for us and the increased physical risk when playing a full contact sport against the opposing sex.”
“We believe, my daughter included, that refusing to compete is the best way to push back on this issue, and we are hoping parents will be more willing to put themselves out there knowing they don’t have to be the first or the only family within our community to do so,” she aded.
Jacques is not only dominating in soccer but also in high school <a href="https://x.com/icons_women/status/1757146082331775460">track and field</a>, taking away the opportunity for a female to be named the girls’ high jump champion when the biological male won first place at the New Hampshire Interscholastic Athletic Association Division 2 state championship in February.

Members of a New Hampshire high school girls&#8217; soccer team refused to play against a team whose star player is a biological male, following a similar move by some universities when it comes to teams with trans-identifying athletes.

“This isn’t about transgenderism,” Heather Thyng, the mother of a Hillsboro-Deering player who refused to play, told the outlet. “This is about biology for us and the increased physical risk when playing a full contact sport against the opposing sex.”

“No one ever got near [Maelle,] so I guess they’ll never be in any danger if there’s enough girls to always have a weak team,” Betsy Harrington, another parent said. “If every game has a few girls refusing to play, we will never know the ability of the Kearsarge team. They have an advantage I hadn’t thought about. It’s that they get to always play a crippled team without all of their players.”
&#8220;We believe, my daughter included, that refusing to compete is the best way to push back on this issue, and we are hoping parents will be more willing to put themselves out there knowing they don’t have to be the first or the only family within our community to do so,” Thyng said.
&#8220;The coaches reassured me they told the girls there would be no negative repercussions for anyone who refuses to compete,&#8221; she added. &#8220;They said they understood the increased risk and would be paying attention to the aggressiveness of the game, and if anyone was getting hurt or play was too rough, they were prepared to end the game.&#8221;
Jacques is not only dominating in soccer but also in high school <a href="https://x.com/icons_women/status/1757146082331775460">track and field</a>, taking away the opportunity for a female to be named the girls’ high jump champion when the biological male won first place at the New Hampshire Interscholastic Athletic Association Division 2 state championship in February, the outlet noted.
On Monday, the women’s volleyball team at the University of Wyoming became the third school to refuse to play against San Jose State University because the California school has allowed a <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/transgender">trans-identifying male</a> to play on the women’s team, as previously <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/university-womens-team-becomes-latest-to-refuse-to-play-against-trans-identifying-male">reported</a>.
In a statement posted on <a href="https://x.com/RealDanZak/status/1841229572886364624">X</a> from the Wyoming Cowgirl Volleyball, the team stated, “After a lengthy discussion, the University of Wyoming will not play its scheduled conference match against San José State University in the UniWyo Sports Complex on Saturday, Oct. 5.”
“Per Mountain West Conference policy, the Conference will record the match as a forfeit and a loss for Wyoming,” the statement added. “The Cowgirls will host Fresno State on Thursday, Oct. 3 at 6:30 p.m. in the UniWyo Sports Complex.”

At the Israeli men’s team’s opening game against Mali, which ended in a 1-1 tie, anti-Israel demonstrators booed during the playing of the Israeli national anthem. The day before, Israel team coach Guy Luzon, was apprised that there would be demonstrations against Israel at the game, and <a href="https://www.ynetnews.com/culture/article/hyyacrc00a" target="_blank" rel="noopener">told</a> a press conference, “Bring on the loudest protests. They will make us try harder.”
On Sunday, Nurali Emomali, a judo competitor from Tajikistan, refused to shake hands with his Israeli competitor, Baruch Shmailov, after the match, which Emomali won, allegedly <a href="https://twitter.com/rose_k01/status/1817576509231829065" target="_blank" rel="noopener">yelling</a> “Allahu Akbar.” In what some observers <a href="https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/olympics/article-13682649/Olympics-star-refused-shake-hands-Israeli-rival-pays-price-stunning-bit-karma.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">called</a> “karma,” in the next match against Japan&#8217;s Hifumi Abe, Emomali suffered what appeared to be a dislocated left shoulder and was left in tears on the mat.
According to <a href="https://www.timesofisrael.com/we-will-repeat-munich-1972-israeli-olympic-athletes-threatened-ahead-of-paris-games/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Times of Israel</a>, Israel’s Olympic athletes received death threats in mid-July. A message from an entity that identified itself as “the People’s Defense Organization,” which the Times of Israel reported “doesn’t exist,” stated:
<blockquote>
The People’s Defense Organization announces that it intends to harm any Israeli presence at the Olympics &#8230; the Jewish lobby that controls the French Parliament won’t decide anything anymore &#8230; the fate of the Zionists will be like the fate of the Palestinians in Gaza if the Zionists continue to threaten everyone. &#8230; Therefore, you’re not invited to Paris 2024. If you come, take into account that we intend to repeat the events of Munich 1972. &#8230; You will be awaiting attack at every moment — in the airport, the hotel, and the streets which belong only to us. Even a wave of arrests against our organization won’t stop us from seeing our plan through. Prepare for the intifada!
</blockquote>
“Some Israeli athletes, including the Opening Ceremony flagbearer, judoka Peter Paltchik; and swimmer Meiron Amir Cheruti, received invitations to their own funerals,” the Times of Israel reported. “A screenshot of the message sent to Cheruti showed the message inviting him to his funeral and listing his date of death as July 27, 2024. The message also included a link that supposedly contained directions to the location of the funeral.”
In 1972, eight Palestinian terrorists from the group Black September, an affiliate of the Palestinian Liberation Organization (PLO), invaded the Olympic Village, murdering two Israeli athletes while holding nine others hostage. When a rescue attempt was made, the Palestinians murdered the nine hostages. Many of the Israeli athletes had lost family members in the Holocaust.
“The mastermind of the Munich Massacre, Abu Daoud, had openly stated that Yasser Arafat, the PLO chairman, approved the terror plot,” the Jerusalem Post <a href="https://www.jpost.com/opinion/article-757576" target="_blank" rel="noopener">noted</a>.
While the terror against the Israeli athletes was being perpetrated, Avery Brundage, the president of the Olympic Committee, declared that the Games must continue.

A huge brawl broke out in Charlotte between fans and members of Uruguay&#8217;s soccer team after players entered the stands following the team’s 1-0 loss to Colombia in the semifinals.
It happened Wednesday night in North Carolina at the Bank of America Stadium where the city was hosting CONMEBOL Copa America match, that represents all 50 states and around 60 countries, <a href="https://www.wsoctv.com/news/local/soccer-fans-fill-charlotte-copa-america-semifinal-bank-america-stadium/3HGUD5HUINDPDFKUBLWTSIVW3Y/">WSOC TV</a> reported. Immediately following Uruaguay’s loss, forward Darwin Núñez and about a dozen of his Uruguay teammates <a href="https://x.com/TSN_Sports/status/1811227359217139862">ran into the stands</a> where the major fight broke out.
In <a href="https://x.com/FavianRenkel/status/1811261365849624711">one clip</a>, Nunez can be seen throwing a punch to a fan wearing Colombia colors, the outlet noted. Things then got out of control between fans and players, with beverages and trash being thrown back and forth and people being shoved. 
“This is the best game I’ve ever seen in my life,” Daniel Arias, a fan, said.

“Whether you were cheering for Colombia or Uruguay the atmosphere at Bank of America Stadium was unmatched,” he added. “It was once in a lifetime.”
Another fan, Jorge Gonzales, said, “When I saw the players running, I was like OK, this is about to get ugly.”
Gonzales said he got out his phone and captured the fight which he said appeared to first start between fans and Uruguay players’ family members, the outlet noted.
“I was able to witness a Colombian fan, you know, start crying as his national anthem was played,” Gonzales said. “So, look more for those moments versus, you know, drinking a little bit too much and letting things spiral into chaos.”
The federation that oversees the match released a statement after the fight in Spanish, then translated into English, that read, “La Conmebol strongly condemns any act of violence.”
“Our work is based on the conviction that soccer connects and unites us through its positive values,&#8221; the organization statement added. &#8220;There is no place for intolerance and violence on and off the field. We invite everyone in the remaining days to pour all of their passion into cheering on their national teams and having an unforgettable party.”
The Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department was on scene to stop the fight and no one was arrested in connection to the brawl.

Retired men&#8217;s <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/soccer" target="_blank" rel="noopener">professional soccer</a> star Alexi Lalas is in disagreement with U.S. Women&#8217;s Soccer team captain Lindsey Horan over her harsh words about American soccer fans.
Horan recently <a href="https://theathletic.com/5242921/2024/02/01/lindsey-horan-uswnt-world-cup/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">told</a> The Athletic that American soccer fans are &#8220;not smart&#8221; and don&#8217;t understand the game the way other countries do, such as the fans in France.
“American soccer fans, most of them aren’t smart,” she told the outlet. “They don’t know the game. They don’t understand.&#8221;
“I’m gonna piss off some people,” Horan continued, adding that &#8220;people are more and more knowledgeable, but so much of the time people take what the commentators say, right? My mom does it! My mom says, ‘Julie Foudy said you had such a good game!’ And I’m here, just going, ‘I was f***ing s*** today.’”
Foudy is not just a commentator, but a retired women&#8217;s soccer star with two FIFA Women&#8217;s World Cup championships and two Olympic golds under her belt.
Horan added that playing in France is different, because fans there &#8220;know football,&#8221; seemingly unlike the U.S.
“From what I’ve heard, people understand my game a little bit more, a sense of my football and the way I play,” she said. “It is the French culture. Everyone watches football. People know football.”
Lalas was not impressed with Horan&#8217;s take, and mocked her approach as a &#8220;bold strategy&#8221; during a trying time for the women&#8217;s team.
&#8220;So, not satisfied with already turning off many Americans who don’t watch soccer, evidently the #USWNT has now set their sights on turning off many Americans who do watch soccer. Bold strategy,&#8221; he posted, as <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/sports/former-us-soccer-star-rips-womens-captain-saying-most-american-fans-arent-smart" target="_blank" rel="noopener">highlighted</a> by Fox News.

&#8220;I actually think American soccer fans are arguably some of the most educated, interesting, and well-rounded in the game,&#8221; he continued. &#8220;In a country where soccer isn&#8217;t king, American soccer fans have often had to seek and discover the game, domestically and internationally. This proactive approach, out of necessity, has given American soccer fans a unique appreciation and view of the game. It&#8217;s not provincial, it&#8217;s worldly.&#8221;

&#8220;American soccer fans are forced to see the game relative to the world, not simply the country,&#8221; Lalas said. &#8220;This means American soccer fans are often more educated about that world than others. Also, because of America&#8217;s unique culture, American soccer fans are exposed to a much wider spectrum of soccer styles, leagues, players, ideas etc. than other countries. This has produced a soccer palette for American soccer fans that is much more diverse than many soccer-centric countries and cultures.&#8221;

During her interview with The Athletic, Horan also acknowledged why the U.S. team has been criticized for their outside focus, which has included far-Left activism.
“If you’re not backing it up on the field, people are gonna come and talk s*** about what you’re doing, where your priorities are,” the captain said. “Like, ‘Are you getting ready for the game? Are you caring more about this s***?’”

A <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/texas" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Texas</a> soccer coach/assistant football coach was arrested after being accused of spending thousands of dollars of district money at a Houston strip club.
Former middle school soccer coach J.D. Bales faces a felony charge of theft of property after he allegedly used his school district credit card and spent more than $5,000 at the Men&#8217;s Club of Houston while on a coaching clinic trip, <a href="https://www.wcmessenger.com/articles/former-bridgeport-coach-arrested-for-felony-theft/">the Wise County Messenger reported</a>.
Despite Bales&#8217; initial denial to the school and bank that the $5,455.81 charge on the district credit card was fraudulent, an investigation into the matter reportedly proved otherwise.

Bales was arrested on December 15 and later released after posting a $10,000 bond. He resigned as a middle school special education teacher in September.
Following his arrest, Bridgeport Police Chief Steve Stanford told the outlet, &#8220;During the investigation, which included information that Bales had formerly claimed the charge was fraudulent (with both the school and the financial institution), investigators discovered evidence indicating a criminal offense occurred.&#8221;
&#8220;Bales eventually submitted payment for the charge,&#8221; Stanford added. &#8220;However, due to the overwhelming evidence in the case (most importantly the case involved taxpayer money), I believed it was prudent to submit the case to the Wise County District Attorney.&#8221;
Bridgeport Independent School District Superintendent Dr. Amy Ellis confirmed that Bales&#8217; resignation followed an investigation into &#8220;allegations of misconduct regarding the use of district funds.&#8221;

&#8220;[Bales] resigned from both his coaching position and his role as a [special education] teacher at Bridgeport Middle School [Sept. 8],&#8221; Ellis added, noting the board accepted Bales&#8217; resignation as it was &#8220;in the best interest of Bridgeport ISD and the athletic program.&#8221;
In 2018, Bales was hired by the district and was in charge of the middle school&#8217;s soccer team, as well as working as an assistant football coach for the district&#8217;s high school, the New York <a href="https://nypost.com/2023/12/27/news/texas-coach-arrested-after-spending-5k-at-strip-club-on-hs-credit-card/?utm_source=twitter&amp;utm_medium=social&amp;utm_campaign=nypost">Post</a> noted.
In May, six of the players under Bales&#8217; leadership were arrested on a misdemeanor charge of personal hazing. The alleged incidents took place between October of 2022 and March of 2023, the Wise County Messenger noted.
Stanford told the outlet that an investigation &#8220;revealed that over the 2022-23 soccer season, several upperclassmen (players) were involved in the hazing initiation of underclassmen, described as &#8216;de-pantsing.'&#8221;

After her son, the president of the Spanish soccer federation, was suspended because he kissed a member of Spain’s women’s team on the mouth after the team won the Women’s World Cup, the elderly mother of the president locked herself into a church and went on a hunger strike.
Spanish football chief Luis Rubiales had kissed women’s team member Jenni Hermoso on the lips, prompting FIFA, the soccer world’s governing body, to provisionally suspend him.
Rubialies’ mother Angeles Bejar — who has locked herself in the Divina Pastora church in Motril, east of Malaga — called the treatment of her son an “inhumane witch-hunt” while initiating an “indefinite, day and night” hunger strike until “justice is served,” The Daily Mail <a href="https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-12452761/Spanish-FA-chief-Luis-Rubiales-mother-locks-inside-church-goes-HUNGER-STRIKE-stop-inhumane-treatment-son-tells-Jenni-Hermoso-tell-truth-amid-kiss-gate-suspension.html">reported</a>. She stated she wanted Hermoso, who had stated the kiss was not consensual, “to tell the truth” and “maintain the version she had at the beginning of the events,” according to <a href="https://www.marca.com/futbol/2023/08/28/64ec63b846163f05b58b459e.html">Marca</a>.
Bejar opined there was “no sexual abuse as there is consent on both sides, as shown in the images” and wondered “why are they being cruel to him” and what was “behind all this story” as her son was “incapable of harming anyone.”
Rubiales had told Spanish officials that he had asked permission to kiss Hermoso and she said he could give her “a little peck.”
Hermoso responded on <a href="https://twitter.com/Jennihermoso/status/1695155154067087413">Twitter</a>, “I feel obliged to report that Mr. Luis Rubiales&#8217; words explaining the unfortunate incident are categorically false and part of the manipulative culture that he himself has generated. I want to make it clear that at no time did the conversation which Mr. Luis Rubiales refers to in his address take place, and, above all, was his kiss ever consensual. I want to reiterate as I did before that I did not like this incident. The situation shocked me given the celebrations that were taking place at the moment, and with the passage of time and after delving a little deeper into those initial feelings, I feel the need to report this incident because I believe that no person, in any work, sports or social setting should be a victim of these types of non-consensual behaviors. I felt vulnerable and a victim of an impulse-driven, sexist, out of place act without any consent on my part.”
Rubiales&#8217; cousin Vanesa Ruiz Bejar spoke to reporters outside the church where his mother was staying, saying, “The statement I&#8217;m about to make is extremely difficult. &#8230; There&#8217;s a campaign of harassment occurring that is very unfair. Luis&#8217; mum who is a very religious person has sought refuge in God and started a hunger strike. She doesn&#8217;t want to come out of the church. We are all suffering a lot because of what&#8217;s happened to Luis which doesn&#8217;t seem at all fair to us.”
“He’s been condemned already without being tried,” she continued. “It&#8217;s not normal. &#8230; The facts speak for them, there are videos, there are audio recordings.”
Turning to Hermoso, she said, “Jenni, say the truth. Why has she changed her version three times? We have suffered a lot, we have had to leave our homes because of the harassment we&#8217;re suffering.”
She added of Bejar, “She&#8217;s an elderly lady whose health is very delicate and she&#8217;s suffering a lot. She&#8217;s crying all time and is not able to sleep and is not eating. The person that spends five minutes with Luis knows he&#8217;s a really good person with a big heart. He&#8217;s a very noble person.”
Asked how long the hunger strike would last, she responded, “Until that woman speaks and tells the truth. I&#8217;m not saying who&#8217;s the baddie and who&#8217;s the goodie here, but I just want Jenni to tell the truth.”
Spain’s federation (RFEF) said it would take legal action against Hermoso, releasing a statement claiming Rubiales&#8217; claim that Hermes lifted him off the ground before the kiss was accurate. As The Athletic <a href="https://theathletic.com/4807367/2023/08/26/jenni-hermosos-luis-rubiales-legal-action/">reported</a>, they showed four photos of Hermoso and Rubiales embracing, then stated, “the facts exposed by Mr. President are absolutely true and that he is not lying. &#8230; The evidence is conclusive. Mr. President has not lied. The RFEF and Mr. President will demonstrate each of the lies that are spread either by someone on behalf of the player or, if applicable, by the player herself. The RFEF and the president, given the seriousness of the content of the press release from the Futpro Union, will initiate the corresponding legal actions.”
Olga Carmona of the Spanish women’s team, who scored the winning goal, stated, “I am not going to let anyone cloud the fact that we have been world champions. I am going to refrain from any kind of comment, I am going to focus on enjoying the moment and on everything that is coming after achieving that title and nothing else. It is already a reality that we have won a World Cup. We are already landing and we already know what we have achieved and the caliber and repercussion of being champions.&#8221;
“I wrote a tweet in which I supported Jenni Hermoso but once again, in this case I don&#8217;t want to get involved or make any kind of comment. It&#8217;s all in the hands of those in charge,” she concluded.
