Not one T. Yes.. coaches complain, but I've yet to hear a magic word, or have them read a decible level that wasn't quelmed with a simple "thats enough coach".
Thats just me. I've come close... but they all seem to know that look that I give them... and they shut it.
I'm SURE I'll have to eventually, but havn't had to yet.

60 games in a row is a lot of games to go without a technical foul. Every game is different, and perhaps you're just on a streak of good luck. I write here just to remind you that, as a first year official, you may not have a real good sense of when to/when not to issue the T. (Then again, if you've been "around the game" even while not officiating, you might have this good sense.) Ask experienced officials in your area whether they would issue Ts given various circumstances you've faced. In the end, be glad when you go through the good streaks and be ready to call the foul when and where it is warranted. Thanks for joining the ranks.
