FWIW, I'd probably have called the T. My original post in this thread didn't take into account that the kid had to actually get the ball after the whistle. I still say it's not "automatic" when a kid bounces the ball a little hard (and it doesn't take much force to get it to bounce 10 feet high). |

I don't have an objective standard; it's completely subjective.

Depends on how high, how, and why.
Self frustration (follows airball or ball trown-away) will allow a little more tolerance. Who is the action directed at? How high matters...no specific distance. 4' = nothing 40' = T. Everything else in between is judgement. Ball ends up in his hands vs. player going to get ball makes a difference. The whole picture has to be considered to get the right answer. A ball going 10' up dosn't get my attention unless it is directed at me or my partner. |

Judgement call. There are lots of good refs on this board and it seems to come down to about 60% T and 40% no T. So I do not see a definitive answer. You have to decide.

"Best for the game" can be argued forever. I generally opt for people skills over excessively rigid rulebook enforcement. Many here would disagree with that. I am genuinely disappointed when I have to give a technical foul for unsportsmanlike conduct, because I always try and use my people skills to prevent it before it is necessary. But I don't judge others. You have to live with and embrace your own style. |
