Had four coaches and two players last year. One JV coach just couldn't control himself after I told him I'd heard enough. One AAU coach, same thing. Another AAU coach screamed an obsenity after a no-call. Last one was an AAU assistant coach stood up and screamed his disapproval with a traveling call.
Players were easy; all JH. One dropped an F-bomb and the other performed the post-foul-call shove on the player that fouled her.
I'm getting it down with more games, and I've found that talking to them keeps the tensions down during the game so they don't get to that point as often as when I was newer.
