I couldn't help myself. I just laughed (didn't say a word).

Coach: "I'm serious, his cheek becomes his pivot."

Me: " "

I just put the ball in play.
I had a kid once who was sitting upright on the floor holding the ball and started to wiggle over a few inches. I called a travel. The coach asked me why that was a travel. My reply - "He moved his pivot cheek, coach". The coach chuckled and didn't say anything else the rest of the game.

8th G Boys CYO: Baseline throw in for A. I administer throw in sideline near B bench. Ball in play, shot goes up- From B's bench (asst coach) as the ball is in the air: "3 seconds!" Clang off the rim ball high in air: "3 seconds (head coach- I recognize the voices) tip, tip, tip, tip (Jeez somebody grab the dang thing) "3 seconds!" (both coaches). Ball finally controlled by B and A clears to play D- I hear "Guys no 3 seconds without possession" from A's bench-> B coaches, in unison, "Oh"....

As I run by A1's bench it's all I can do to not high-5 the coach... I never said a word to either...
