Had our pizza party last night. There were about 30 of us stuffing our pie holes with very nutritious starch-based products. One of the discussions concerned where non-shooters must stand during technical foul (and intentional foul) free throws. There were only a few of us who knew there was no rule requiring the players to be in back court. This is probably one thing I see a lot of refs get wrong all the time. We also discussed changing our kids rec league rules next season to reduce the number of timeouts and also being more strict on bad coaching behavior. One of the guys wants us to call technicals if any defender shouts when a kid is shooting (not FTs, shots!) but he was shouted down.
All in all, it was a good way to unwind after the season. I highly recommend something like this, especially if all the food is free.
