We guide and enforce the guidelines, but there are alot of... unwriten rules when it comes to this.
One person on this board said that if we called ever contact we saw on the court games would last days. That is taking over the game. When you call every thing you possibly can just cause you can. IMO.
I've never seen any good varsity officials do that. They always are patient and precise with the whistle.

Well again I don't know what a patient whistle - or even what you see varsity officials do - has to do with this discussion. But let's leave it at this: what most would call poor officiating you call "taking over". My view is different - good officials take over as soon as they hit the floor.
