First scrimmage of the season

[Judtech]

Had to laugh at my scrimmage saturday. If memory serves, and I am trying to forget, we had 40 fouls, in the FIRST HALF. V was in the bonus at the 15:30 mark and the double bonus at the 13:40 mark. H would just not keep their hands of the ball handler. And after every call the coach just kept telling his players "Good D. The officials will grow to appreciate the good D". One of his players, and eventually the coach, asked us to loosen up our calls since "This is just a scrimmage and we want to let the girls play." My response was to say, Don't you want your girls to get used to what is going to be called when the games are 'real'. He said yes,, and I said that is what we are doing!! Finally, late in the 1st half, one of the parents yelled "Keep your hands off the ball handler. The refs are just going to call it every time you put your hands on them". Too funny! Much better 2nd half!
