I could not disagree more with what Rainmaker said. At absolutely no level of play is it okay for the coaches to be able to tell the officials how to officiate during the game. If two coaches came up to me at halftime of a varsity or NCAA women's game with the same gripe, I would direct them to their locker rooms or huddles and walk away. If it persisted, I would give a technical foul.
Then you have one coach who asks you to call more fouls on his own team, and you decide to call more fouls on BOTH teams? What is that? Don't penalize the other team just because the first team wants more fouls called on themselves.
I just can't believe that as an official yourself, you would make these comments, or even condone them if a coach directed them at you...
