Fan Ejected

[UNIgiantslayers]

I was thinking about this last night. I am doing a few junior high games this year as a favor, and last night was the first one. There was no administrator on site, just the coaches. At that point, how would you guys handle an out of control fan. Obviously it's pretty unlikely at a middle school game, but I wasn't really sure what I'd do if it got to that point.

If it was clear what team he/she was with I would tell that coach to remove the fan, and if they failed to do it I would forfeit/suspend the game. I'm not going to stay and get abused, and at a MS game no less.

Pro bono?

If you're getting paid, it's not a favor.

As to your question, I don't work games in facilities that don't have some sort of game mgmt or site admin whom I can turn to handle situations.

I understand what you're saying here. I blocked the dates from my assignor because the AD asked me to do them. So yes, I'm getting paid, but it was something that I could have turned down. Which I will do if there is no game administrator at any more of these games.

If there is no one else then the Home Head Coach is the site game admin.

$90. ABC 6 min quarters. C game is pretty brutal. Actually A & B are pretty brutal too. It's fun though, I don't mind doing it as long as everything is organized well. The girl working the table was one of the best I've ever had which was really unexpected.

Give the coach a chance to deal with the fan. If the coach refuses to deal with it, or if he can't deal with it (fan refuses to leave), you really only have 2 options: call the game and get the heck out of there, or get law enforcement involved.
