All the officials' fault

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.

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.
