Like I said, if I feel I "prematurely beckoned the coach", I have no problem acknowledging I was wrong and allow the player to stay in. I would do the same thing with an inadvertent whistle (very different in some ways). I am much more patient than I was 10 years ago and you won't see this happen.

At the same time I am not talking about a player who takes two minutes to get ready to play holding their knee in agony. I am talking about a player down momentarily and out of lack of patience, I beckon the coach.

PT is a very coveted thing in this area as teams may only travel with 8 players (if they have 8 available) and only get 10 games a year unless they have enough money to travel to a tournament, which will cost a minimum of $2500 round trip.
