The F-bomb is irrelevant from the parent, because as soon as he came down to berate the officials, he's leaving. Site management needs to be on top of it, though, and the officials shouldn't even have to address the situation.


Agreed.
But to be fair, every complex around here where they play travel ball has at least four courts going on at same time with one site manager. It's generally up to the officials to police it. Most of the time it's simple enough to tell people to leave but I'm sure we have all had to delay games waiting for some idiot to leave. Our sites are pretty good at taking care of things and backing officials if it comes to ejecting someone.
