Despite what some say, it's not the same game. Not even close.

Actually Rich my philosophy to call the game is pretty much the same in every game I work. I try not to worry too much about the talent of the players. I think that keeps me consistent when I work a small school game to a college game. Obviously the players do not handle contact the same, but the same philosophy applies to have a slow whistle and to call what needs to be called. And one of the reasons I stay away from girl's basketball as well. I cannot handle the crying for fouls when the defenders or the other players do nothing illegal. I had to give it up and stick with
Boy’s/men's basketball.
