Bad call?

I think so, but it happened so quick.

I had player A1 with the ball charge B1. A1 bounces off and B1 maintains her position, but when it happened, I blew on it thinking B1 was going to the floor. But B1 just took the hit and didn't move....

I thought, come on help me out here, fall.

I would loved to have held the whistle, but I didn't...what can you do? I called the charge.....

I hope it was the worst call I had but I am not sure...Hoping for a better game tonight.

I dont believe a defender HAS to fall for a p/c to be called.

Let the play completely finish as in SDF before popping.

How about a travel call against A1? (assuming she wasn't still dribbling)

Sounds like you made the right call. Defender doesn't have to get run over to be in good position

I would look at it from this perspective. What advantage did A1 gain by virtue of his/her illegal contact? If none, I would either go with a no-call or perhaps a travel if applicable.

Just from your description of the play, I would say A1 did not gain any advantage. But, that's JMO.

Sounds like perhaps a no-call was warranted, but we've all had this call that we want back.

Been there. Done that. I hate it when that happens.

If the defense is displaced/impeded at all then you can still make the charge call. If they really don't move or lose their ability to move and whistle goes then you better hope for understanding coaches or find another call.

Go with the charge or inadvertent whistle. If there was a travel after the contact, then go with that.

Given the choice, I would have rather held the whistle, but I reacted too quickly.

The game was very sloppy by both teams. that made it hard to officiate.

We called about 40 fouls total including a "T" ( not by me ).

it wasn't a close game about 25 points most of the night, but the turn overs, about 25 to 30 it was sloppy and we as a crew fell into it.

Tonight I had a much better game. Boys Varsity, no regrets.
