Scrimmage not so fun

Most of the time they play 8-10 quarters. Running clock.

Even in football teams play 1 or 2 scrimmages against another team. All rules apply, we throw flags but don't usually mark the yardage off. All rules apply to scrimmages just like regular season games. Any fights or ejections and players/coaches are subject to disciplinary action

Again, more drama than we have to deal with. There is no T to give. What are we going to T someone for being out of the coaching box? Heck we have had coaches stop the game to give instruction (just like a practice).

Even in the football example you gave, coaches are all over the field, usually right in the offensive backfield and if we have a penalty, we might not even mark it off. In some cases, there are two different units going on on the same field going from the 30s or 40s to each goal line.

Like I said, these are practices, nothing more but with officials on the field or court.

Peace
