well if you don't let minority owned clubs or clubs with minority players compete against you then i guess they can never beat you.....
If you're reading this board, odds are you've been to a lacrosse tournament, and if you've been to a lacrosse tournament, you've seen minority players and teams made up of minority players competing. So, the question is who are you going to believe? Your own eyes, or someone who finds it convenient to lie for a shot at a payout?
Well then let them play! sounds like they played last year and won, registered this year, bought plane tickets, hotel rooms then were banned without reason or answering and questions
Yes, that is the thing about discrimination law, in private business you can (and have to) make a lot of decisions as long as they are not focused on a protected class of people, while the same standard of conduct isn't extended to others. ML can omit anyone they want from any event, so long as the reason isn't exclusive to a protected class. For instance, if what they accuse Nationals of doing is accurate, they sure can reject them from future events..........unless True and other clubs (like ML!!!) are known by tournament ownership to be participating in that same exact behavior to any extent.
I can almost guarantee that is the core of Nationals' complaint, but we can't really know that because the complaint is poorly written and they haven't gotten ahead of it PR-wise, which is a mistake.
