All right, here's your chance to sound off to coaches, if you're interested. I'm going to give a memo to the 11 coaches that work in our parish CYO program (and possibly post the memo on coachingyouthbasketball.net) how to treat the refs during games.
Already in the memo is not to argue rules unless you've actually read a rule book, don't try to show up the ref, keep the kids from arguing with the ref, basketball is a contact sport (don't yell "foul" every time one of your players is touched), recognize that noone can see every play.
If anyone would like to add anything, please feel free to respond. Keep it clean, please. Maybe we can reduce at least some of the howling.
