Ref Threatens Other Ref

[Back In The Saddle]

Now that HS ball is over, I'm busy with AAU and church league stuff. For whatever perverse reason a lot of these gyms have the table at the end. Now THAT takes some getting used to. And there seems to be an endless variety of situations. Benches on one side, table at end. Benches on both sides, table at end. Subs take the long hike to the table. Subs report at the center line.

It's a pain trying to remember where the table is to report, where to look for subs, where to look for timeout requests from the bench, which side we've decided is "table side" during free throws. And there's no chance that it's all going to become automatic that night. And don't even get me started about reporting from 80 feet away and hoping the kid on the book was paying attention.
