tricks to enforce the seatbelt

[PIAA REF]

The best way is if she stads while her team is in possession give her a time-out, That is the only reason she is to be standing (to request a timeout) If she tells you she didn't want one give her the option of the TO or the T for standing after losing the box. I'll bet she wants the TO. Usually if you do this once she will get that she can't stand.

I LOVE this! I will have to file that away for future use.

Are you serious? You'd do that instead of warn once and "T"?

I don't know. I've never even thought to do it. But it seems to me to be a pretty good warning in itself, and the coach gets a bit of a penalty on top of it, instead of just a verbal slap on the wrist.

I don't want to throw a coach out for standing and coaching. I just don't. If this is a more effective tool at keeping the coach on the bench, and allows me to NOT toss the coach, then I like it. In my experience, the verbal warning does nothing. They sit down and then forget and stand up. So if I send a stronger warning without tossing, I'm all for it. Now, if they ignore that friendly warning, then they seal their own fate.

Well, all I can say is Chuck Elias(bless his dear departed soul) would never dream of saying anything like that. The man was the very epitome of nads.....

If Chuck was alive today, he'd roll over in his grave if he read what you just posted....

Never make a call that you can't logically explain to an evaluator.....

DAMN YOU!Every time that picture gets posted, I get in trouble for laughing out loud. That is the absolute funniest picture I have ever seen on the internet.

I don't know that I would use that in a Varsity game, but I will definitely save it for later. That is sharp . . .
