Yes the UIL and TASO have been working together for the betterment of both officials and schools for a couple of years now since we have broken off from the old SOA (southwest officials association) that used to include both New Mexico and Oklahoma.
I also echo the earlier statement that you seem to be mature far beyond your years and look to have a long sucessful officiating career. I have a buddy up in Lubbock that has been doing College ball since 18!! So go for it!
As far as giving the son's team a "T" that would be a no-no. I would just have the dad removed and then allow the kids to resume the game. Quite often the players are embarrassed about their parent's conduct and penalizing them for fan actions should be used as a ABSOLUTE LAST RESORT! That is why it is important to have game administration present at all levels to take care of problems. Good luck with your career, and continue to come here for help and tips on officiating.
