Coach, 6th grade girls...c'mon! You can't call an intentional in that game. When you officiate 6th grade girls, you have to (i hate using this word) "altar" the rules a bit. If you called every single walk or three seconds you'd be there all day! You have to let a bit more go. It can't be called word for word.
Secondly, you mentioned there was only one referee. Well, one ref can't see a lot. You can't expect that game to be the best officiated game you've ever seen. It's not his fault the other guy didn't show up. But he will still do his best.
Thirdly, I come back to my 6th grade girls point! That is a learning experience. I think you need to spend a little more time coaching ball than trying to coach officials.
By the way, how'd that game end up?
Good luck with the rest of your season! Peace.
