And don't tell players what you're going to do if they do something again. Talk to the coach if need be or handle it.
BkBallRef -- Actually, I thought it was rather unsporting under the wording "making a mockery of the game". It looked intentional to me, one of those stunts that an eighth grader would think might be cute. I didn't think to was simply a push.

I do agree about talking to the coach. I don't expect there are any coaches that like their kids to make up the plays, and if I said something to the coach, I expect that would be an end to it. If I didn't call the foul (which I didn't) I should have at least talked to the coach.

Oh, well, "tommorow is another day"!
