You'll learn.

That "good rapport" will go right in the dumper as soon as you make a key call that he doesn't like. Just do your job. And part of doing your job is not letting any coach try to do it for you, no matter how friendly they might try to be while doing so.

There's all kinds of different tactics that coaches will use to try to influence your calls. Killing you with kindness is one of 'em.

Be polite, say as little as possible and stay away from the coaches unless necessary to do your job. That's the best rapport that you'll ever have imo.
