My Two Cents....
I grew up in central Illinois. It was my experience that the girls teams were often more skilled in the fundamentals of the game. The boys were trying to play like the pro's while the girls played sound fundamental ball. In fact, when I first got the opportunity to coach, My first book I bought was "Competitive Drills for Winning Basketball" written by Jan Lahodny who at that time, was head girl's basketball coach at Victoria High School in Texas. I found the drills and philosophy that she offered were more suited to my team that did not play "above the rim" like so many boys coach's book were written for.
Now, as an official, I take any and all games they give me. I love the game, boys, girls, Jr. High whatever. I'm not passing judgment on JRut, I don't know him. That's just my take on the situation.
