Scorebook before game

In the gym I do scoreboard/timer, I've been given the authority to act as crowd control, so during the halftimes in that gym I don't allow anyone on the floor. The only exception to the rule would be a player playing in a game later that evening, however their coach has to be present.

For the past 2 years, during the Varsity Halftimes, at my alma mater, the Spirit Club or FBLA does Soda Shoots to raise money. Unfortunately, the only time the floor gets swept is before the JV Game happening on that floor, other than that no floor sweeps. There's a policy of no soda in the gym, yet they do the Soda Shoots. Last year it kinda nipped them cause at the end of the last Varsity Game a person dropped their soda bottle they won and it sprayed all over the floor.

I can see the drill/dance team doing a routine at halftime, but not allowing anyone on the floor with non-court shoes to shoot baskets. During the Soda Shoots, everyone that participates goes out on the floor & constant reminders are said about no street shoes on the court, yet being ignored.

This is entirely a matter for game management to decide and to determine how to enforce. The officiating crew have nothing to do with it, nor do we want to have anything to do with it. You'll need to direct your questions and/or observations about this matter, to them.

Concerning the game management, at the site there's two gyms connected to a common hallway, the primary game management is the AD, Principal, & Booster Club President. When I'm not doing scoreboard/timer &/or shot clock, I am crowd control. Needless to say, kinda a full plate for the 5-7 hours I am there.

Like I said up above, in the gym I'm in doing scoreboard/timer I double as crowd control during halftime & between games.

Ask the principal and/or AD before the next game. If they want people on the court, let them. If they don't, don't let them.

Pretty simple. People get on college courts non-stop during intermission and halftime. Many high schools have presentations/other games. It just doesn't seem that big a deal to me.

We (in SC) have been told not to allow the Varsity Boys (or the next game participants, if double header) to shoot around during the half time of the girls varsity game. I have had this a couple of times especially when I officiate teams from out of state. Other than that anything goes during halftime until the 3 minute horn. The officials are in charge during half time. Who would you T up for dunking if it is a Varsity Boy's team member during a Varsity Girls game halftime?

Nobody. If it's an issue, get a coach or game management to help take care of the issue.
