Just curious about why you considered this act "above rim play and reminded the point that trail will cover that." All of the bodies in this act were not above the rim. Lead should have a great view of the situation. If "he grabs the rim and hangs there for 2 seconds swinging back and forth a couple times." That seem very possibly to be excessive. Were you right to T the coach for his over the top act? Yes. Did the coach have a very valid point? Yes. As the R you will be responsible for the pre-game, some techincal items at the table. During the game you are responsible for the toss, quarter inbounds, decide if a goal shall count if officials disagree, forfeits, scoring & timing errors & "shall make decions on any points not specifically covered in the rules." Rule 2-6 states that "No official has the authority to set aside or question decions made by the official(s) within the limits of their respective outlined duties. It does not give you the superpower to change your partners judgement. Don't get hung up on being the R.
