I always have my cell phone with me, when I am doing rec league. During High school games (Varsity) at least you law enforcement official is present.
During a rec league game a few years ago, a fellow official was threatened by a player. It just so happened that one of the teams playing that night was made up of local troopers and police. Player was escorted out of the gym, and official was asked to file a complaint, and after the official was finished for the night, the troopers made sure that a car was outside visible for all to see.
Bottom line, do not be afraid to notify the police.
