6) Coaches do not have a right to criticize officials. They can ask questions and work with us to make the game better, but they do not have the right to criticize.

7) Managing the game and knowing the rules are BOTH important.

9) Girls games are not necessarily more difficult than boys games. Just different. I have called more intentional fouls in boys games than in girls games.
Thanks for the reply:

6) Constructive criticizm from coaches is probabably a better term.

7) Have to disagree with you. Anybody can read the rule book (I had a 96 on the FHSAA exam), but an official still has to know the game and how to manage people.

9) The girls you officiate must be more like "ladies". It is very well known, in West Central Florida, the girls games are lot more difficult to officiate.

Again, thanks for your opinion
