Sounds like there should've been a T or 2 issued by you or your partner in the first half.
Players do what officials allow them to do. |
Depends on the atmosphere of Rec League you are officiating in. I've ref'd my share of Rec ball and there some leagues where you are better served by literally telling the ball players to "quit whining and play ball" or "I ref, you play, and that's end of this conversation".
Most times these guys acknowledge they are just whining and at the end of the game they shake your hand and thank you for coming out and working their game.
