As a coach, what can I tell/ask the refs prior to a game to ensure they prevent a very physical (10th grade)game?
I.e. some refs call fouls well, others allow alot of defensive fouls in the paint.
My goal is keep the kids safe at all times.
It's not your place to tell the officials how to call the game.

You've got some issues, coach. You aren't playing the officials, you're playing the opposing team. Your entire outlook on the game is wrong from the gitgo.

Your opponent plays my physically than other teams you play. Then make adjustments with your team. Don't expect the officials to change the way they call the game because you ask them to. Sorry but that's stupid.
