You should check, in a rather neutral way, what your association IS recommending. If everyone in your area does this, DO IT!! If this guy is living in La-La land, don't tattle, or embarrass him. You could ask your association rules interpreter, "I was watching this game where when the one ref went strong side, pretty soon the Trail scooted across the top of the key. Is that the preferred way to handle this?" You're not naming names, or accusing. Just getting info. He may say, "Oh, it was Spunky Jones, wasn't it? He always has done that, although we keep telling him not to.' OR "Of course that's best. Haven't you been paying attention in the pre-games we give?" OR "There's a time for that, but not in any games below the State Tournament level." Or whatever. Then you know what to work on next.
