At a recent game my partner called quite a few charges and illegal offensive screens. He called for free throws, which I administered. The coach was questioning my partner during the game.

The first year we went to TC fouls I think all of us had to think carefully about them until we got used to the idea of not shooting. Your returning partner will need to readjust his thinking and learn some new things if he's been out 10 years. Lots of changes in 10 years. That said, learn from his mistakes and you will always own those rules when things like this arise.
