Thought I could get throught the season but noooo....
Final set of games on my schedule for the year, Girls and Boys 8th grade games. I have been told all season by members of the association, I'm new to the Savannah area, how bad the coaches in the area run off at the mouth but I didn't have any issues this season. 3 minutes to go in the 3rd quarter of the Girls game, red player drives the basket, defender chasing, defender fouls, partner has the call, red player stumbles into the wall padding. She then walks a few feet toward her bench, sits down and starts to cry. Coach begins to head her direction so I hit the whistle to alert my partner we have a stoppage of play because of the "injury." After 30 seconds or so, she gets up and starts to head to the free throw line. My conversation with the coach went something like this:
Me: Coach, I need a sub for #12. Coach: What! Why! Me: We stopped play for you to attend to her. coach: She was hurt...you should have called an intentional foul. Me: I understand coach...I need a sub please. Coach: This is ridiculous...she was intentionally fouled! Me: I still need a sub coach. Coach: I'm not sending in a sub! Me: Tweet...report T. Coach, sub please. Sub enters, misses both free throws. White misses both free throws. And away we went. Coach was fine the rest of the game. So much for my "perfect" season... |

That's understandable, and most of these coaches will continue arguing until you start the clock. At most, he'll talk to a wall for 20 seconds until the T is issued. Report the T and repeat as necessary.

I was turning to the table to ask them to time 20 seconds for me when the coach, a woman by the way, told me she "would not send in a sub." My belief at that point was she had crossed the line and deserved the T. I could have waited for the 20 seconds but it wouldn't have made any difference. She simply wanted me to know she was unhappy with the lack of an intentional foul call.

Trust Snaq on this, he's 100% on the mark....it's hard to get yourself in trouble when you follow the rules.

Assigner: So, is it true that you gave Coach Fidiot a T for not giving you a sub? Ref: Yes. Assigner: Is it true you didn't give her the 20 second sub clock? Ref: Yes. Assigner: So what was your rule basis for the T? Ref: ???? By rule, coach has 20 seconds to provide the sub, and what they say in the interim does not shorten that time limit. You called the T before she broke the rule.

Excellent Tips
Snags..nice job on how to handle the situation and how to utilize the 20sec. clock in the sitch. I'm new and DID NOT realize that you could/should use the clock in the injury sub sitch. AND that you don't utilize it unti lthe HC is finished attending to the injured player.
Filed away for future reference&use if/when necessary. |
