Is that the answer you give if the supervisor asks why there was dunking going on in warm-ups? You have to address it in some manner, you can't just ignore it.

When a triple header is scheduled, 1- three man crew will work both the freshmen and the JV contests..Then another 3-man crew is there for the V game..

Yes, in my game by players in my game. If its no one invovled with my game, why in the heck am I going to penalize either team. A visitor might as well wear the home school shirt and come out and dunk and earn a T for the OTHER team. This T is completly absurd, and I guarantee this will hamper your advancement. Unless your superiors have explicitly told you to call this, and I dont see how they could or would, but if they did that is the only time to make such a call.

And if his partner dunked during this time, he could penalize his partner with a technical foul, hell, make it a flagrant technical foul, and sit him down too. Then he'd be left alone to work the game, and make as many crazy calls as he wanted to.

if he assessed his partner with a Technical, does that mean that he gets to shoot the free throws? or since it's usually refs v. crowd, does an upstanding citizen from the peanut gallery get to shoot the throws? that'd make for an entertaining score on the evening news:

home 42 visitor 33

crowd 2 refs 0 (unless you're counting correct calls as points and bad calls as negative points, in which case its probably refs 53 crowd -200)

So, what do you do when, during pregame warmups for the JV game, one of the players dunks? Then, you find, that he's not in the book because he's a varsity player just screwing around.

It's been discussed here ad nauseum -- with passionate arguments on both sides.

Personally, if it's clear that he's not a JV player, then just get him off the court. If you think the coach is trying to pull a fast one, issue the T.

How I hate non-player situations like this. Had a boys reserve game one night where I observed a player warming up with earrings. During captains' meeting, I emphasized no jewelry (he wasn't a captain), yet when the teams went to huddle before the tip-off, he still had the earrings in. I went over to him, and told him to get rid of the earrings. He said, I'm not playing, and when I looked at his outfit compared to the others, I realized he wasn't kidding me. What made me think he was a player, he had the same warmup shirt on. Jeez.

What fast one will the coach be trying to pull?

Freshman game, 1st game of a triple header, and the 'Home' boys go to the lockerroom for a last minute chat before the opening tip. After the boys left a few 'Home' JV boys go out onto the floor and do a little shooting. One guy decides to dunk the ball. Here is where it gets interesting. One official puts air to his whistle and reports a 'T' will be issued to the home team. Now when the freshman come back out the coach is informed that he has received a 'T' and that he has lost his box. The game begins with 2 freethrows and the ball is awarded to the Visitors. Home team gets the arrow. Coach is irate all game and then asks the referee who issued the 'T' if the number in the book is correct because he is going to report him to the MHSAA. Has this ever occurred before? I was looking thru the books and came up empty. I have a game with this official next week. I want to make sure we are on the same page.

3 man crew for freshman games?
