BTW- No one is there/knows how to keep a scorebook and the coaches usually lie against their own team. Please Help
PAT THE REF,
I feel your pain.
I like your card/paper idea. Could you give it (and a pencil) to your timer and let the timer do the fouls?
Like Mregor said 5 fouls is usually the most a player may receive before being disqualified; I guess the NBA is the only league with 6.
By taking initiative, perhaps you can change the attitude in the league.
Hang in and hold on.
