Free Throw Violation?

[Dribble]

I'm with WIRef here...there's being a "book" official and a "real" official that separates the top refs from ones that stay mediocre. I don't know, but has anyone been to a camp where the clinicians tell you to call a toe over the line? I haven't, but I've certainly been to several that say to pass on that call.

A common term used in reffing is being "overly officious." Calling a toe over the line falls into that definition. A full step may be different, but I'd still warn in that case...especially for only a varsity game. Highschool kids are going to make mistakes without you pointing it out to the gym. Pull him/her aside and have a word...I assure you that this kid won't go over the line again even with a softer intervention.
