Had a partner on a soph boys game when I first started who had what he thought was perfect solution for new shirts. He had his wife cut off the 'byron' on his shirt. It looked like a Nehru jacket.

Same guy who as we are going to other end to shoot 1 and 1 with players lined up and shooter misses first one with subsequent rebound, now we have a whistle. He informs me that he called a tech at other end but didn't tell me.

The good old days!
