Stop Game for Injury?

[totalnewbie]

No, not at all. We were told if we believed that it was a fake or a ploy to get a free timeout or some other instance then dont stop it. But if kid is on ground in apparent pain they want stoppage of play if there is no reason to question legitimacy.

Now, contrast this to just an injured player situation. The "stop play" direction we were given is only for people in pain down on the floor. Not limping or standing and griping or yelling, or kneeling. Just for laying down on floor in pain, as in "serious injury."

I'm just telling what I was told by my supervisors: if a person is down on the floor in pain (and not apparetnly faking) stop play.
