Many, many moons ago I stopped refereeing to coach a few years. When I went back to refereeing,(still young age) I was "thick skinned" because I was a coach and understood their frustration at times.
Then I came to realize it wasn't about how much I could tolerate. Rules say coach can't act like a knucklehead. If he does, T. It's just another call. Follow rules. When we let a coach act up repeatedly we are not doing our job. The other coach loses confidence in us. I'm not saying go crazy on Ts but what you can tolerate is not the standard. Good luck
