I was working a girls CYO game and called a 5 second closely guarded violation. The coach, not at all happy, asked me how long the rule has been in effect. I told her I wasn't sure how long but it was in effect now. At halftime I pulled out my rule book and showed her the rule. She said it was ridiculous and that six feet is too much space. I finally told her we were playing by the official rules and not her rules. She shut up.

This is the biggest issue I have with Rec. league and CYO coaches. They are supposed to be teaching kid the game of basketball, but someone needs to teach them. They sit there and complain and question calls without a clue about the rules or how they are applied. When it is so easy to pick up a book or go on the internet and learn the rules of the game they are teaching.
