With all respect for Tony and TriggerMN, Juule is 100 percent correct in here suggestion.
We are talking about a bunch 10/11 year old kids getting banged around in a RECREATIONAL league game. Not a North Carolina State tournament game or a NCAA Womans game. In all probability the refs doing the game were two 14 or 15 year olds who had minimal training and were afraid to blow the whistle because some adult is going to scream at them. Chances are that these kids are playing on some elementary school court that is tile on concrete.
If it was as bad as cuttplug says, and we do know that coaches tend to exaggerate a bit, the coaches not only have a right to approach the refs but they are legally responsible for the safety of the children. Like Padgett, Ive been on the board of a rec league for a long time, 12 years in my case, and we preach the young refs and to the coaches that the safety of the kids comes first.
