SIT.4) A1 is dribbling up court, B1 is defending. When A1 establishes front court status, B1 “bear hugs” A1 – at this time the coach for Blue proceeds to walk out on to the court and starts questioning my partner. He states that there was a foul (in my position as the new L in a full court press) {I was in position and I did not see white commit a foul}. My partner “T’s” the coach – while I’m reporting the foul to the table. The table did not catch my reporting… So my partner gives the BIG T… What I mean by that is – “Tweet”, “Technical Foul on Blue Coach, White shoots two…” Goes to administer the free throw already. There I am – still at the table – so I finish with the table (had a 8th Grader doing the book)… and tweet to my partner. Then I hustle over and state I have an intentional foul before the Tech on B1… We put A1 on the line – 2 shots, he stays for the T – 2 shots – all made. A Ball… Any comments or tips you can give me for this situation?
I agree with everyone's assessments on the Ts but I have to ask about the intentional foul you mention in this situation. I am not following the sequence here. B1 "bear hugs" A1. I assume that B1 is on the white team and A1 is on Blue (this assumtion is based on the fact that Blue coach comes on the floor). You say in the beginning of the situation that you did not see a foul against B1 from your position as lead. Then, later, you say you hustle over to your partner and say you had an intentional foul on B1. How do you call an intentional foul on B1 now? If you did not see it from lead earlier, you cannot call it now. Also, If you called a technical on Blue's coach and, in this situation, Team A is blue, how did A1 get 4 free throws? I would think that if you called the intentional and then a T you would have 2 shots for A1 for the intentional and then 2 shots for Team B for the tech. Am I missing something here?
