Ejection?
Local youth travel league, 6th grade boys. The visiting team coach is also a 20-year official in our chapter. Both coaches have been fine all game. Up 10 with 5 minutes left, home coach starts griping about the foul count. I give him a stare and he drops it. Very next play, his player falls down with the ball. An opponent was moving toward him but the home player went down on his own, no question. I call the travel. Home coach pops up to protest. In this league, the assignor has told us that a coach standing to question a call is an automatic T, so I call that. Probably was warranted even without the rule. Anyway, the coach says "I know the other coach is an official, but come on!"
Second T or no?
