Boys U12 game yesterday. Coming down to the end of a good game A up by 3 with a few seconds left. B1 fouls A1 with a blatant push. My young partner - maybe 16/17 who has done a pretty good job, rings B1 up - intentional, flagrant, technical!

B coach says, "WHAT?!"

I called my partner to the side and said, "let's just go with an intentional foul, ok?"

He was fine with that. A little over zealous, maybe, but his heart was in the right place!!

Live ball. Contact. Can't be technical. Could be intentional and/or flagrant. Gutsy call for a high school kid. Give him a contract.

After the games we worked yesterday I absolutely gave him his props!

He's in his first yr and is certainly NOT weak with the whistle or afraid to make a call! He has a future if he wants it. Good to see!!
