My team and I are being ually abused or molested by our team coach?

My friend and teammate already posted a question similar to this one, about our gymnastics coach. In her post she told everything that he had done that we weren't to sure about. Like our s, pecking us on the lips, telling us we have nice es etc.. Anyway we were worried about saying something because we weren't sure if what he was doing was wrong. Because he would always preach to the team that "gymnasts and coaches have a special relationship". Last summer our coach had a summer camp that the elite team had to attend, anyway during the camp my teammate and I found out that we were going to be co captains of the team. So our coach had called us into his office to "congratulate" us. When we got in their he shut the door and put his arm around our waist and made us kiss him. We pushed him away and told him to stop. He told us that he "does that to all his team members and even though it may seem weird at first we would all get use to it" After the kissing incident, I talked to some of his old students and they said he has always been touchy. So me and the team felt like it was something we would just have to get use to if we didn't want our gymnastics to suffer, but my gymnastics has already started to suffer because of him. I want to tell my parents what's been going on but what if they make me stop doing gymnastics I've worked hard ( we all have ) to get were we are.
