I guess what bothers me about your response
Is sort of an arrogant tone, like the management of the game is not a cooperative... win-win situation, it is a dictatorship.
Clearly there are times (almost always, actually)when decisions must be rendered by an official... quickly and decisively.. and not wait for input. But in this case, if both coaches and (presumably) game management are on the same page, why go against the rest of the team that you rely on to help you administer a smooth game?
I am still waiting for a logical answer as to why you wouldn't allow it. You just say it is a judgement call, and you would judge "no". I am interested in the REASONS why you would render that judgement. You did say you don't think the kids need it, but the coaches, who know their kids better than you think they do, in this matter I believe their judgement may be more valid than yours.
In the end you are correct that it is a judgement call, but I am just wondering WHY you would go against both coaches and (presumably) game management.
read your own tag-line... you may be correct, but not right.
