Had one in an 8th grade AAU game today. Same partner I had last week with my two Ts in two games. 2nd game today, and about half way through the third quarter I call their best post player for a travel on an otherwise decent looking move.
Both coaches stand up and yell "that's not a travel."
I didn't bother with a stop sign or a warning light or a yield sign or anything. I ring up the assistant with the accompanying indirect on the head coach. Partner seat belts the coach, and all is well the rest of the game.
After the game, both coaches come up and chat, very cordially. Assistant coach apologizes saying he didn't realize he couldn't stand. I smile and nod and the head coach adds, "If I'd known I was going to have to sit, he'd have had a seat belt." Intense coaches, but they just needed a bit of guidance.
