A Long Island soccer mom allegedly bashed her daughter's elderly youth coach in the face with a cloth folding chair Sunday because the man - who offers his time for free - failed to e-mail her proper directions to a game.

The attack marks the second instance of parent-on-coach violence in Nassau County in less than a week.

Cops said Alicia Vigil, 33, confronted the 68-year- old coach after her daughter's game at Sewanhaka HS in Elmont because she wasn't provided directions to the youth-club game via e-mail and had to get them from other parents.

Vigil's daughter is a member of the Lynbrook/East Rockaway Soccer Club, a youth program that fields both boys and girls squads from ages 4 through 19, according to a team official.

Police said Vigil and the coach were engaged in a heated verbal altercation when the man turned and began to walk away. Enraged, Vigil allegedly took a folding chair and hit him square in the face as shocked onlookers - including the young members of both teams - watched in horror.

The coach, who refused medical attention, suffered a busted lip and a cut cheek, according to police.

Cops said that as a parting shot, Vigil scratched a van she believed belonged to the coach.

Ok, did he or did he not e-mail her the directions? The two report contradict each other. (How do you hit someone in the face when they’re walking away?)
