Q from 1st Year: Coaches who call you by name...

I coach a CYO team (5th grade boys) and we almost always get youth referees (local high school players mostly).

I always introduce myself to the referees before the game, and learn their names. Anyways, last game I wanted to question a call and called out, "Katie he was pushed!"

A dad who was working the table (he was pretty knowledgeable actually) said, "You can't call her by name!"

I hadn't really thought about it before.

Does anyone have any issues with being called by name?

----

When I am reffing, I always, always, always refer to coaches by "Coach". I haven't really encountered a coach who called me by name. So, again, any issues with that?
