(Oh, btw, did I mention the scoreboard and clock operators were volunteers, and these games were the first they've ever done?  )
Then last night I had one that was essentially a snoozer - worked with two good partners, boring game, barely broke a sweat, no problems from players, coaches or fans. Now I'll have a couple of days off, and I'll be ready to start back up full throttle next week.
It will get better. (I can't guarantee when, only that it will.) |
Isn't it interesting the way that goes.
Three games the other night. First two were a mess.....I don't know how the kids were coached to play defense, or not. But, no matter how many fouls we called the kids just kept hand checking and holding. Also called a lot of charges and blocks.....physical play at both F and JV levels. V takes the floor and they knew how to play. Much easier to call. Much more pleasant game. Leave on a good note.....
