The beauty about officiating is that you can handle many situations any way you like. If you feel a T would be better, use a T. But then remember that you will have to explain a one on one conversation to someone. And like many coaches do, they believe the kid not the officials. Now the assignor gets word of the situation and starts asking you questions about what was said and starts nitpicking your behavior and your judgment.
That is why you either ignore his behind or just keep doing what you already have been doing. I know when a kid comes to me and complains about what another player is doing, I tend to remind them that means I will see what you are doing too. If the player has an outburst that everyone can see, at least you have tape or everyone can see he had to say something.
Peace
