I said thanks coach as I always do,"I just call the game the way I see it for the level of the kid's".

During the game, all the coach did was yell that the other team was fouling his players and where were the calls?? At that level, you can call fouls on every play, anyways.

It is just amazing how many times a coach will say "let m play", but he only means his team.

Your comment was an excellent response to the coach's plea. And it should be a good guide for officiating sports below the H.S. level.
