Sore opponents

Today’s game, my daughter suffered some really disgusting verbal abuse from the opponent’s players. I made a complaint to the ref, who heard some of the horrible things that was said - he even ‘sinned binned’ one of the players. Our coach is also putting in a complaint but I just can’t get over what happened. I understand frustrations can run high in games and some players vent that frustration but this was beyond the ‘normal’ verbal comments made. As a parent, I’m wondering if I should have done more, or even complain to the club directly about their players unacceptable conduct. Our coach said he’ll handle it via our club. My daughter is ok now, she’s processed what’s happened and managing to take the positive out of what’s happened but it’s just not sitting right with me.
