My organisation received an email from a sports club saying they fired their head coach because he failed a working-with-children background check. I forwarded the email to the head coach and asked "what's up with that?"

It turned out to be a technicality and he's suing the sporting club for damages based on the letter that I shared with him.

The manager of the sporting club (runs 20 clubs around the country, very big time guy in the sport) confronted me today saying that they'll be going after me for damages for sharing a confidential email.

Am I in trouble?
