I've been doing a lot of middle school games alone recently. Your first year is hard enough, nevermind being alone 60% of the time. Being the only target on the floor has been tough. I was going out to a game recently and said to my friend "time to go get verbally abused infront of dozens of people again."
I have asked the assigner if he would like a few more names so we don't have this problem but he has said no, the season is close to being over for this league. Sensing that I will be doing quite a few games solo the rest of the year, what is the mechanic? I have been going about foul line to foul line, drifing with the ball as it goes down low and as it goes across the court. Is there more I can do?
Oh yeah, when I can help it, I run up and down opposite the benches to lessen the ability of the coaches to jump all over me..
