Well, I haven't seen that before...
I'm only about 20 games into my season and I've had quite a few oddball things in my games already:
As for the airhorn, the FT went in which was good because I wasn't sure at the moment what I would do if the horn caused him to miss. Biggest JV-B game of the year I had so far at the biggest school in my area, and since it was close and long the gym was nearly packed. It was the first of two, with the home down by one point and about 30 seconds left, just as the shooter released it. After the make, I stopped my partner and went to the game manager, who pointed at a security guard already headed up into the stands to get the kid, so we played on. Of course, with no horn on the second shot, the guy missed and we ended up in OT. And the varsity officials always love it when the JV game goes OT! I was new lead on the play with the little girl on the court, 6th grade boys' CYO. I was sprinting back with my head turned at the guy who stole the ball and I didn't see her. Luckily my partner did and got a quick loud toot out to stop the ten-boy stampede headed at the three-year-old! The missing name isn't that odd I suppose, but I've never had it before. It was the first time that counting the players actually mattered. I also like to go to the table at -11:30 so I feel like I'm following the letter of the rule in these situations, getting it resolved before the ten-minute-mark. Oh and the CYO coach, I pinned him early in the second quarter (my only T so far this year), and a couple minutes later my partner got the assistant coach. He told the table that the HC now had two total Ts, one more and he was out. We looked up a minute or two later and the HC was not on the bench and nowhere in the gym that I saw. Didn't see him again. There were two other people now coaching the team, and neither of them ever said a word to us. We theorized that either he thought he was ejected, or the principal or somebody told him to leave! Oh, and I had my first varsity game last Saturday! It went very smoothly. And I had five fans there--my wife, three friends, and a ref/mentor friend.

I've had the little kid run on the court incident before. Thankfully I noticed her before running her over and her mom scooped her up a second later.

I guess my question at this point is what would be the correct thing to do? Another FT for a disconcertion? Play on while the offender is dealt with? I don't have my books with me, but I don't remember reading about this situation. I may have just missed it.

PennCoach, Thanks for the update, last week Boys V we had a three year old enter the court as well! (no problem, just held up the throwin for a couple of seconds)I have never seen both coaches "leave" or be ejected. A coach a while ago told me that he got ejected years ago for two direct technicals with no assistant and the principal took over the team. Is this legal?

I think we all see things we haven't seen before. Some are things that are fun to talk about. Most are things we will never see again. A lot of them seem to happen in JV games. Saw one kid put a FT over the backboard on the fly. And on the ensuing trip down the floor for the other team a kid zipped a pass under pressure that hit that same kid in the head and deflected to a teammate who went in for a layup. Also had a kid fire a pass parallel to the floor into the post from outside the arc that was deflected by a defender inside the arc and it went into the hoop for two points.

Whenever a little kid runs out onto the court, I tell his parents that next time, make sure he checks in to the table first and waits for us to call him in. It usually gets a laugh.

Can't call disconcertion. That only applies to "opponents" on the other team(9-1-3c), not spectators. See case book play 1.18(c). Warn 'em first and then you may give a team "T" out if it happens again, but you'd better be sure that it actually is a supporter of the team you're giving the "T" to. |

Me three.....
Girls JV Game, I'm T.
A1 passes to A2, B1 tips the ball into the backcourt. A1, A2, B1, and B2 go charging after it (these were not small girls). Out of the corner of my eye I see Jr., must be 18 months old running onto the court after the ball. Me..... TWEET! TWEET! Mom came onto the court, never knowing where Jr was before that moment I suppose.
