I agree with OHBB, being able to succinctly use rule terminology and do it in a confident manner. Had a coach wanting a 3-second violation after a shot bounced off the rim and both teams were going for the ball near the side line away from both of us. "Coach there's no team control on a shot and until a member of his team gets control, there is no 3-second count." What else could he say?
Some coaches will take the explanation and the ones that don't and want to keep complaining start to fall on deaf ears. Know your rules and explain them with confidence. |

Me: Blue, 14, push, one and one. Coach: (sarcastically) So you're gonna shoot on the offensive foul? Me: Coach, there is no team control during a throw-in. His mouth opened..........and not another word came out. My idea at the time was that the phrase team control was foreign to him.
