If I can get between players before they start throwing haymakers, I will. But once it gets to that point and the benches empty, no way in hell am I getting involved. I think grabbing players and potentially letting an opponent get a "free shot" is a nightmare waiting to happen. What if it's a girls game and you accidentally grab someone's breast?

I do not get paid enough in the games I work to risk my safety and liability breaking up fights.

At the higher levels where the officials are getting paid significantly more and dealing with adult men, different animal.
