I did one years ago and had a great time.I had a coach mess up and did not start an autistic player,about to start the second half and the young man gets extremely upset because the scoreboard should be at 00 to 00.

The coach explained about the importance of routine for
autistic children,so I got the coaches together and we agreed to put the scoreboard back to 00 to 00 keeping the actual score in the book for the second half.The boy's mother gave my partner and I a hug after the game,thanking us for bending the rules a bit,so that her son could play.
