To be a bit more specific on the foul calls - first the "questionable call" that I made was against the defender in the 3rd quarter who bumped/ blocked the girl with the ball with her hip as she was driving the baseline towards the basket. It was a light bump but still a bump that blocked the offensive player and it happened right in front of me so immediately blew the whistle.

This is when the coach became furious at me and was immediately ejected from the game for leaving his coaching box because he received a warning about that earlier from the other ref.

I did question the call in my mind afterward thinking here I am just letting the players make harder contact under the boards then on the foul that I called.
Reason being it is very hard to call a foul in the paint when the players are so bundled up, I knew there was contact but could not tell who was fouling who - especially when they are all jumping together for a rebound.

I was told to only make calls that I was certain about.
