I was told over and over again, try not to be vindictive and or make disrespectful comments such as; "sit down and shut up", when replying to coaches. Since a single or double pre-game conference should have addressed any warnings, an assistant coach berating an official would land him/her a technical and the head coach receives an indirect. |

The head coach will normally ask a zillion questions or make statements during live ball or dead ball action. I do not think ChrisSportsFan was implying that an official should reply back and forth to a coach with a lengthy dialogue. |

Some of the best advice I have gotten about addressing coach comments/questions I heard from former NBA ref Nolan Fine. He suggested addressing the coaches with questions. Things like, "How did you see it, coach?" One of the best I have used is "What do you mean by that?" when a coach is commenting about an uneven foul count. The question usually forces a coach to stop for a second and allows you the chance to respond differently. A coaches first comment or question can be very confrontational in tone, if you can get him or her to rephrase, it can lead to a better dialogue. Plus, responding with a question usually buys you some time. I have found that a good answer is usually "I understand." or, "I see where you are coming from." It acknowledges the concern, but doesn't commit to anything.
Bottom line-- most coaches want, and deserve, some type of response, since no one wants to be ignored. The trick is in knowing the appropriate response.

3 Second : "Outtas the lane", "Outta the Lane" Close guarding: "Hands, Hands...Watch the Hands" Rough Play: 'Easy, Easy"...."Knock it off" Back at Coach: "Got it , Thank you" All short and sweet

Snake-
I heard Nolan speak at the D3 Supercamp at the University of Richmond. He is from the area, so he is a regular there. He stayed around for a few days, and it was good to be able not only to hear him speak, but to hang out a bit as well.

I didnt read all of the replies....( but I'm being lazy today, forgive me ) so perhaps another has mentioned this....
From my experience, when you are talking to players during the game while the ball is live.....using one word followed with your whistle if needed is a great option. " Lane " - " hands " - " EASY! " ( post play ) One reason this option works well is you avoid the potential " must whistle " between words One of my personal favorites is prior to throw in and things are getting testy......hold onto the ball and look at the players with a smile and a " what the heck are you two doing? " look..... hahha..... but the situation must be appropriate. my 2 cents |
