Football coach suspended after twerking on players

A Florida middle school football coach has been suspended after being accused of ‘twerking on players’.

Courtney Spruill, an assistant football coach at Kean Middle School – where students are aged between 11 and 14 – reportedly tued up to an end-of-season party hosted by one of her players with a bottle of vodka, where she showed students how to twerk and also received a lap dance.

One student told investigators the team was dancing before Spruill told them to put away their phones and ‘showed them a few moves.’

Spruill, who also teaches health and physical education at the school, was suspended without pay for 15 days, with an investigation concluding there was enough evidence to sustain ‘the gross exercise of poor judgement’.

Evidence included a video of the lap dance, which was ‘approximately 3-4 minutes long’.

One mother told CBS she hoped Ms Spruill would not be teaching her daughter.

‘You wonder why kids act they way they do these days,’ she said.

‘The focus should be on education, not twerking.’
