New Sit. 4 me - Deaf Player

[BktBallRef]

I had my first totally deaf player last night. She comes to the table, shirt tail hanging out. I wave the opposing sub in and tell her to stay. She runs onto the floor. "Come back, 21!" No response. I hit the whistle and call to her again.

"She's deaf."

Then why in the hell didn't somebody tell us that before the game.

I'm just glad I didn't T her for running onto the floor, unbeckoned.

After the game, Coach asked if if he thought the signer could stand. I talked to the assignor this morning. He said no but possibly have her sit separately between the end of the bench and the table. But no standing.
