Thought I could get throught the season but noooo....
Final set of games on my schedule for the year, Girls and Boys 8th grade games. I have been told all season by members of the association, I'm new to the Savannah area, how bad the coaches in the area run off at the mouth but I didn't have any issues this season. 3 minutes to go in the 3rd quarter of the Girls game, red player drives the basket, defender chasing, defender fouls, partner has the call, red player stumbles into the wall padding. She then walks a few feet toward her bench, sits down and starts to cry. Coach begins to head her direction so I hit the whistle to alert my partner we have a stoppage of play because of the "injury." After 30 seconds or so, she gets up and starts to head to the free throw line. My conversation with the coach went something like this:
Me: Coach, I need a sub for #12. Coach: What! Why! Me: We stopped play for you to attend to her. coach: She was hurt...you should have called an intentional foul. Me: I understand coach...I need a sub please. Coach: This is ridiculous...she was intentionally fouled! Me: I still need a sub coach. Coach: I'm not sending in a sub! Me: Tweet...report T. Coach, sub please. Sub enters, misses both free throws. White misses both free throws. And away we went. Coach was fine the rest of the game. So much for my "perfect" season... |
