That's fine if they want their schedule messed up, because the game isn't continuing till we get a new score keeper.

Around here there is a better chance that the referee would be replaced.

I surely wouldn't say Boo either. He is paying me for the games I completed though.

Would I still get paid?



There is a high school AD in a league where I work who takes it upon himself to just change the rules to fit all of the games in before the scheduled varsity tip off. Typically they have a FG game and FB game scheduled 45 (!!!) minutes apart. Then a JVB game an hour after the FB game and then the Varsity an hour after the JVB. He will attempt to change the amount of TO's a team has, go to running time despite the score, change the amount of time in the quarter, limit the use of TO's. And boy is there hell if you question him on it. Needless to say, I don't work there any more.

Sounds like this AD has a bright future in politics

If he were making the games last longer that's one thing, but I could care less about shortening a game (increases my hourly rate).
The rule changes he makes sounds as if they favor the officials. Where is this school & how can I get down

I treat those situations just like the clock operator:
"Sir/Ma'am don't let it bother you if you forget or are slow to stop the clock, but please don't forget to start it".

All this drama is the very reason I limit my AAU experiences (outside of camps) to zero.

I complete waste of time and this is why.

Peace

NewNCref,
I was on the game with you I'm glad the consensus was that we handles it correctly. When I saw the thread title, I thought, "Hmm, I wonder if that's the same site director I had problems with?"
