In any event, you should never try to be so subjective and influence the game with your morality about sportsmanship as it relates to a blow out. Do your job and officiate the game within the rules set forth by the sanctioning body you operate under. Let the coaches "coach" even if it disagrees with your position in this matter.

Robmoz: I did not have an oversight. There are no pressing rules for 5th grade and down. There is no mercy rule in Massachusetts.
