You don't belong out there. It's that simple. I don't understand why people have such a hard time grasping this. The playing court is for the players and officials, no one else. PERIOD.

When there is an injury the appropriate people are beckoned on to attend to that individual.

Hopefully Santa will leave a sense of perspective under the tree for you tonight.

Question:
"What skills does the average parent have which is going to help that child?"

Answer:
Medical History


A1 gets injuried, - Ref beckons A's Coach onto the court, a parent and a Doc rush the court to help without prior authorization. Is that one or two T's?

That information would be on the form filled out by the parent/guardian at the beginning of the season.

Okay, no more name calling and sarcasm.............for now.

All these references to medical release forms, liability, and proper ways to treat injuries have one thing in common, they have nothing to do with basketball. A player is injured. The game stops from my perspective and the injured player gets top priority. If both parents, the trainer, the personal physician, and the priest all come out to attend, I don't see the negative effect on the game.

When the injury issue is resolved, my partner(s) and I will resume our duties.

You think this way because you are not well-versed in the rules. Too bad that you don't read more and write less.

2-2-3 . . . The officials’ jurisdiction extends through periods when the game
may be momentarily stopped for any reason.

Kids are in bed, Santa is done... need to get a few hours sleep before kids wake up early tomorrow.

Merry Christmas

"The officials may call fouls on either team if its supporters act in such a way as to interfere with the proper conduct of the game."

Please describe said interference, because I don't see it.

You don't see entering the court without permission as improper?

only a moron would tread into these shark infested waters ,but here goes ; i stepped on the court on my way to the stands going to watch a H.S. V. game and i didnt get thrown out. total anarchy ! 2. human nature cant be stifled and a parent won't be denied access to a hurt child , no matter how minor it may subsequently turn out to be . rational thinking is not what it should be at these times. 3. thanks to all the pro's here that would maintain the highest standards of the profession while using sensible judgement that wouldn't escalate an unpleasant and tense situation. lesson learned, next?
