Y2Koach, I would have hated to be in a situation like that. If it was me and I recognized what was going on, I would call the first foul I saw regardless of where it is on the court. Some officials' idea of doing a good job is warped to say the least.

Oh, I forgot. Part 3. During the girls varsity game (remember, we do double-headers) I'm at the C, my partner who admitted there was contact after the game is lead and my partner who should have called the contact was trail. This play occured in the second half, opposite the table.
The ball is going out of bounds in the far corner near the endline. A girl from the home team, who is on offense, throws the ball over her shoulder to save it. The ball is up in the air and 8 players are on that half of the court. The best player from the other team has a shorter girl in front of her. They both jump for the ball, but the taller girl is literally almost on her back like a piggy-back ride - this girl is a freshmen, is about 6' and probably blocked 10 shots. The ball ends up going out of bounds and there is a whistle. Well, in the meantime, the two girls come down and the taller girl grabs both of the other girl's shoulders and flings her to the ground. The official at lead was looking at the ball going out of bounds and the other official was.....I don't know what he was doing - probably watching the ball too. Everyone in the gym sees this, it is that obvious since the ball and all the players are now in the area. "TWEET, TWEET, TWEET", here I come running. Intentional foul, which was the least that should have been done. Again, this guy was not on it and missing something like this is how fights occur. The girls game was competitive otherwise and could have got real ugly.

We have the capability to block partners and schools. I think I have someone blocked who isn't officiating this year and I can't find a way to remove it. Too bad because this is someone I don't want to work with anymore. He was pissed after the game, but I wasn't rude or anything. I just mentioned what I thought without sugar-coating it. That is when my other partner said, "There was contact; I could have called it too."
