Funny you ask this one.

Just after a throw-in, an MS coach says to me, "There's a shoe untied. Stop."

I let play continue. When I inform the coach that I'm not going to stop the game for an untied shoe, he replies, "they have before!"

This team from a different part of the state with a different association (albeit under the same umbrella). Different belief systems at different levels, particularly that level, I guess.

While I'll wait to administer a throw-in, I'm not going to stop play when the clock is running for a shoe. MS kids can learn to tie their shoes.

Hmmmmm. No player control, it sounds like.;)

When I say chasing the ball, I was talking as a coach, meaning they were chasing the person dribbling the ball. Sorry.
