So they don't want us to make the coaches mad and they want the games to be under control, we of course, have to juggle that mess.

This sums it up exactly.
Tourney directors want to keep attracting teams, at $350 to $450 a pop who wouldn't?
Site directors want their games to stay on time and go as smoothly as possible, which usually means they support the officials but sometimes it means they say "You T'ed him for WHAT??!"
Officials, believe it or not, are a dime a dozen. If you say "screw that, I'm packing my whistle & going home" you are usually replaced within the hour. If you aint well connected you've probably walked out on more than that 1 game.
