I did have one coach who stood up to me briefly. About two plays after I had given him a rule number he shouted sarcastically, "I suppose that play is covered in rule 17!" I said, "No, actually, travelling is rule 4.32." I was off by a couple, but I didn't hear one more word out of him for the rest of the game.

I wonder if this will work at higher levels? What level were you working?

This was a varsity game, first round of the conference torunament.

Some easy rules to remember:
Correctable error - 2-10
Guarding - 4-23
Traveling - 4-43
Fouls - 4-19
Dribble - 4-15
Player & ball OOB - 7-1
Backcourt - 9-9
Technical fouls
Team - 10-1
Player - 10-3
Coach - 10-5

And yes, I remebered all of them without looking them up!

We're not worthy, we're not worthy... You da man!
