Agreed. I had a coach tell his kid, "If you shoot that sh1t again, you're sitting down." JVB game, I let it go and talked to varsity refs about it later; the consensus was to let this go since he didn't scream it and only his bench, the one player on the court, and I heard it.

He earned his T later that game, though, for screaming at me.

There's no way I'm passing on this T at the age level listed in the OP. If I heard it on the floor, then likely whatever fans might be in the stands heard it as well.

As for a Varsity coach, he might get a pass if he had behaved himself up to that point in the game where the "F" bomb was dropped...depending on a variety of factors. At the very least he gets a warning from me during the next dead ball to use appropriate language out of respect for the game.

No brainer.... it's a 'T'.

He gets a T from me too.

And, if he doesn't like it or thinks its questionable, let's take it up with the league and see what they think.......

11 yr olds? C'mon!

I always regret the T's I don't call, more than the one's I do call. Welcome to the club!

T, no question. He needs a serious reality check acting like this with 11 year olds.
