[/B][/QUOTE]Agree completely,mick.The downside isn't worth it:
-what do you do if A1 misses the lay-up,and then starts bi*ching at you for not calling the kick? Awful tough to justify any response,isn't it?
-also,you lay off the whistle,A1 looks at you,sees "no call" is coming,drops the ball and then smacks B1 upside the head.This is rec ball,remember.Have fun writing that report up!

You can't say that these will never happen.The kick by the defender did,even if it took 15,000 games.

Too many bad things can happen if you ignore calls like this. You can't defend yourself if they do. JMO.
