Youth ball championship
Happened yesterday. 6th grade championship game. White has two point lead with less then 30 seconds and bringing the ball up court. Coach is screaming to foul. Dribbler makes good move in back court, gets around defense and is going up court. Defense is chasing him to foul with arm extended all the way out reaching for his back. Finally catches him and pushes in back. Of course I called intentional foul. Coach is like "you got to be kidding". White makes both free throws, gets the ball, gets fouled again, makes the next two (now up by 6). Game is basically over.
After game assistant coach is yapping how I took the game away from the kids. My thought is what about the other kids. You know the ones that were playing better basketball and were winning, beating the defense, and making free throws. I didn't talk to any of the coaches though. Just thought about it to myself.
