Gave my first Whack since, well EVER!

I dished out my very first Whack tonight. 9th girls, partner calls a foul on a B1, B1 spikes the ball, I walk up to B1, and call by number. No response, I call again, nothing, I finally get her attention, tell B1 I don't want to see that kind of behavior again, this is your only warning, B1 tells me to shut up.

Partner was reporting to the table, I blow my whistle, and T her up. Partner told me I handled myself very well, and looked professional in the way of my delivery and reporting.

After game, Myself my partner, and another official were discussing it, and the other official tells me I should have threw her out of the game. Told me that if a player were to ever tell him to shut up, the player would get a T, and get thrown out.

All in all, game lasted a lifetime it seemed, but we got through it.

BTW, if it even matters, game was not close, the player I Whacked, her team was down like 20+.

Fun times, I am glad that cherry is popped!
