Why didn't you just have the mother removed from the gym? Where was game/site administration? Was the elbow deliberately thrown? If so, did you eject the player who threw it? I realize it's easy to ask these questions when you are not in the heat of the kitchen. The technical on the fan is a pretty harsh penalty and should not be done lightly. Here you have the mother of a player who just took an elbow in the eye. Obviously she was extremely upset and emotional. I just think that the better play here was to tell her get back to the stands or you would have her ejected or to just eject her from the game site. What was the team B coach's reaction to the "T" because of his fan? Other than these comments, with the way you called it, I believe you administered it correctly.
