Lousy reason not to give a T, imo. And it got you in trouble later...

He's the one that couldn't let the past go, not you. You tried to start with a new game, he wouldn't let you. SOunds good to me!

I ejected a coach once in about the first three minutes of a game. She wouldn't leave, and ended up forfeiting. the parents were furious, and got her fired. But that doesn't mean they were bad T's. My partner's only complaint was that we didn't toss her sooner! (I was trying think of the girls.)

I had a similar situation this year. I tossed a coach who mouthed off and then had his team again a couple of weeks later. I was going through the usual pre-game activities and mention the incident to my partner. She said "Thanks" and we went out for the game. Lo and behold the coach is no where to be found and someone new is coaching the team (boys JV). I hang around for the boys varsity and there is the old coach sitting on the bench and assisting the varsity coach.

I have no idea if he was removed from coaching the JV team for just my game (haven't had them since) or the rest of the season. Based on his behavior when he was ejected I tend to think the latter. In either case it was most definitely his problem to deal with in any future games. Our job, and our assignor's, is difficult enough without having to worry about "special" situations that may or may not arise.

The non-calling-technical Officials Responsiblity

FIrst, after an official calls one or two technicals, he should immediately report and walk to the end of where the shots are going to be taken. the off-official is responsible for getting him/her going to the correct goal. then the off-official is responsible for "cleaning up the mess". If that mess is telling the head coach he must leave the gym then so be it.

You are wrong if you call two technicals and stand there in a confrontational manner. You "CAN NOT" win by standing there and telling him it will be a forfeit. first you're partner should be in that role.

Just my Opinion though!
