New NFHS Mechanic?
 
at tonight's CYO JV (Grade 4-6) B bracket game, the officials had the teams start off going the wrong way. :eek: (No big deal, you just correct the direction at the first chance you get and move on from there). At a time out in the first quarter, I asked the official if the teams were going the wrong way and he realizes the mistake. We were supposed to have a front court throw in after the time out and when it looked like they were going to have it in the back court, I asked if the throw in was in the front court and the offical made an L with his fingers and asked if I knew what that meant? :confused: Knowing it wasn't an NFHS-approved singal and fearing I might be baited, I chose not to answer. :D Even the host school's table crew had no idea what he was trying to convey.

Of course later in the game, the opposing coach requested and was granted a time out. After relaying some instructions to her team she asked whose ball it was. When she found out her team wasn't getting the ball (one of her players commited a violation prior to the time out), she said she didn't want the time out and the same official then rescinded the timeout. :rolleyes:
