During a single night of intramurals at UNH we play about 18 games and average between 1.5 & 2 T's per night (our numbers may be skewed because we T for dunking to save rims & jewelry for insurance reasons) but the majority of T's are for too much talk or the occasional physical altercation.

I tend to throw down a few less T's than average because I put in a good deal of face time with the players and coaches before the game , our referee pool is also kind of small so we are all pretty well known and coaches don't really push us too much.

There was one night 2 months ago that I called 2 T's from the bench as a supervisor (controversial I know) because early in the season some of our officials are very green and the games they ref are preseason games. The last thing I will do is allow their rookie status to dictate how well they're treated during the game. But of course teach a man to fish (or to call his own t's) and he'll have dinner for life.
