All the officials' fault

2) Also, is their a mechanic for letting a player know he has been ejected.

3) I also had a problem with the coach saying that HE was suspending the player for one game. Our state mandates a one game suspension for a player being ejected from a game. Although he may have meant that he was adding a game to that.

1) According to the book, only an official can send a player to the dressing room. In real life, if they're getting the yappy l'il sh!t out of our hair, who cares?

2) Just make sure that you tell the player that he has been ejected. Your partner then tells the coach, and then tells the timer to start the 30-second countdown.

3) Forget about suspensions. They have nothing to do with officials. Let the league/state take care of it.

Thats garbage and I hope not reflective on the quality and coaching in your area.

In Ohio we are to report all ejections to the OHSAA. Not doing so would risk being suspended ourselves.

I agree that we do not enforce the suspension but we do report the issue that will cause the suspension.

JR as I am still learning. I thought I read where you tell the Coach first, then the timer and finally the player. I even thought I read where the non-fourl calling official actually does the informing. Is this correct? I suppose in the real world it is irrelevant when you tell the player; as the coach and timer are critical to play continuing.

I completely agree on note 1.

Correct. See 2.8.4 (Disqualification Procedure)
