Got in, but Didn't Get Done

I agree! From the description your calls were correct and you handled yourself professionally.

To reinforce what Junker & Indy said, at this & other levels of rec ball, I keep coaches on a very short leash right from the beginning. Be fair but firm - warn at the first transgression, but penalize immediately if they again step over the line. Catch it early and you greatly minimize the potential for problems later in the game.

Hopefully you followed up with a written report to your assignor or whoever runs the league of both coaches behavior, and in particular the comments of the a$$istant....people with that attitude & obvious lack of knowledge of the game have no business coaching youth sports.
