I don't think he meant from a working hard standpoint...You just can't call that level the way you would an upper level game...Get in position, use proper mechanics, be polite/professional... sure....

I'll open up a can of worms with this....But if the 6th grader in the rec league happens to move his pivot slightly, I might be more apt to allow this early in the season..(some might say call it, it's the only way they learn).....I'm not trying to call every minor incident of travelling for a lower level game...The kids need to learn, yes...but they also need to understand that the game is fun....I could call a travel or foul for contact just about every trip in some games....How much fun is that for the kids though?

It's a fine line....
