Check with other refs
Check with other officials and find out if the league administrators have your back. If they don't, do yourself a favor and pass.
I worked a wreck league where a player physically assaulted an official (threw a ball as hard as he could into the back of the official's head). The guy was given a lousy week's suspension. I quit. So did a bunch of others.
I have also worked for a park and recreation department that protected the refs. Two technicals on a team was a team forfeit. Players behaved themselves and played basketball.
Even then, it wasn't worth it.
