8th grade tourney this weekend. Didn't work it as my school was host and I'm the Board President.
Was verbally ripped by a parent after the game for a player who was on the floor injured. He was away from the traffic and not in danger. Crew let the other team continue towards their basket. They took and missed several shots getting the rebound each time. Finally scoring on the fourth shot.
Opposing coach came out on the floor screaming about the injured player while play was ongoing.
Now IMHO it's a judgement call as to whether to stop play for injury if they are not in danger. In younger kids games I lean on the side of stopping the play just to get the kid off the floor.
Officials in this instance did the right thing as they let play continue as injured player was so far off the play. Big court, former high school.
They did however "T" the coach. Fans thought it was because he left the bench w/o being called. Turns out Coach had a few choice words which lead to the "T".
What's your opinion, Stop play or continue?
