The Wonderful World Of Middle School Basketball ...

I know that these can happen in a varsity game, but it seems that every middle school game presents new experiences.

Just in the past two weeks: Ball stuck between backboard and ring (coach jumps to get it loose and misses), jumper catches ball before the ball touches floor or nonjumpers, illegal numbers (two games), backcourt with only ponytail over division line, coach comes onto court to check injured player (best player) and has to use his last timeout near the end of a one point game, tape over earrings, intentional foul (for no rhyme or reason), player attempts shot at wrong basket (misses), and six players on court (like a hockey line change).

Also had a rookie partner sound a whistle for incidental contact (her description, she said that there was no foul).

What's next? A multiple foul?
