How does those who say that he has to sign an extension (or not be the Coach )get around the legality bits , such as he CANNOT be forced to sign an extension , and especially under duress, which involve threats of removing him from coaching,
Where is the hard evidence of any wrongdoing.
If he wants to continue to Coach here next year There’s not much that the club can do, which is maybe the reason that they’ve been remarkably quite.

Contracts need to be executed properly in order to be legally binding. Below you can find information about the key elements that make up a valid agreement, when a contract is considered void or reasons it can become voidable, and the steps you can take to make sure your contract is carried out correctly.
The Basic Elements of a Valid Contract
A valid contract is enforceable under state and federal laws, and contains all the required elements.
Offer and Acceptance
The two basic elements of a valid contract are “offer” and “acceptance”.
One party makes an offer (outlines what is provided), and the other party accepts the terms of the offer (usually in writing). Acceptance can take time, whereby the negotiation process takes place until an agreement is reached.
Legal Object and Capacity of Parties
The subject matter of the agreement must be legal and both parties must:
◾Freely agree to the terms
◾Be over the age of consent
◾Be able to mentally carry out the agreement
Consideration
A valid contract must have the element of consideration (a price or value) exchanged in the agreement. Consideration is not limited to money, and can include a right, interest, or benefit. Both parties must benefit in some form.
For instance, when one party sells their vehicle to another party, the seller receives money, and in exchange, the buyer receives the vehicle.
Written and Verbal
There are oral agreements that can be enforced, but some contracts are not valid unless they are in writing. Usually those that involve a large amount of consideration or debts, real property, or contracts that won’t be carried out for quite some time (e.g. a Last Will and Testament), need to be in written form.
In summary, a contract is valid if the agreement is consensual, legal, backed up with a promise of consideration, and it is executed by two adult parties who are in sound mind—both of which intend to hold up their end of the bargain.
What is the Difference Between “Void” and “Voidable” Contracts?
When a contract is void, it is not valid. It can never be enforced under state or federal laws. A void contract is null from the moment it was created and neither party is bound by the terms. Think of it as one that a court would never recognize or enforce because there are missing elements.
A contract can be void for the following reasons:
◾The terms of the agreement are illegal or against public policy (unlawful consideration or object)
◾A party was not of sound mind while signing the agreement
◾A party was under the age of consent
◾The terms are impossible
◾The contract restricts the rights of a party
Example: If an individual is hired by an employer and the terms of the employment agreement list illegal job responsibilities, this contract is void because it is against the law and does not adhere to valid contract elements.
Alternatively, a voidable contract is valid and may be enforceable in certain situations if both parties agree to move forward. One party is bound to the terms of the contract, whereas the other party can oppose the contract for legal reasons if they so choose. Therefore if the unbound party rejects the contract, it becomes voidable.
A contract can become voidable under the following circumstances:
◾A party was coerced or threatened into signing the agreement
◾**A party was under undue influence (one party is able to dominate the will of another)**
◾A party is not of sound mind or mentally competent (minor or mentally ill)
◾The terms of the contract were breached
◾Mutual mistakes on behalf of both parties
◾The contract is fraudulent (omitting or falsifying facts or information, or the intention to not carry out the promise in the contract)
◾Misrepresentation occurs (a false statement of fact)
