We had a situation in our association at a 16-18 year old tournament this last weekend.

sitch - final day of the tournament and two games scheduled simultaneously. One game is the championship game, the other is a loser's bracket game. Both teams from the championship game and the winner of the loser's bracket game advance to the next level. 3 umpires, 1 a rookie (20 yoa), 2 veterans (one of which is the assignor, the other a respected big dog). The assignor determines that the rookie should call the loser's bracket game BY HIMSELF and the 2 vets should call championship game.

I have 2 problems with this situation 1)a 20 yoa calling a 16-18 tourney, 2) the assignor putting a rookie on a field by himself in a losers bracket final.
A. What, if any, action should be taken against the assignor for poor judgement?
B. What, if any, action should be taken against the other vet for not stepping up and attempting to stop this?

Just curious, but why are your two questions connected to a desire for punishment instead of just asking for input on how others would have handled this?
