I will address any group of players, coaches, parents, or media, about the rules of the games. We should all be willing to do that from time to time but we should also be willing to make sure that we do it in a manner that befits us as sports officials and not in a manner that belittles our position as sports officials.

Mark, here's the deal in a nutshell:
1. 7/8 graders, church league
2. Limited gym time, maybe 2 to 3 hrs per week including
games probably, liable to be reduced if there's an extra
bingo or school function.
3. Dad coach asks ref to give 15 minute talk on the rules.
4. Ref says sure, comes here for suggestions
5. Ref gets a fistful of grief because he's not
"professional".
6. No good deed goes unpunished, QED
