JV Boys game over the weekend had two unique situations:
1. Back court scramble, call a foul on the visitors. (In football it would have been Clipping) I blow the whistle, give it the "delayed bird dog" (loud gym) Tell my partner, "White on the side", report the foul "Black 25, Push" then go to the opposite baseline awaiting the ball to be put in play. Home coach erupts saying this was the worst call he has ever seen, called me "a joke", said the call was "pathetic" and generally worked himself into a lather. Finally, my partner as he was about to give the ball to the HOME team, blew the whistle, walked to the coach and asked what the problem was. He ranted a little longer and my partner said "Coach, it is YOUR ball". COach said "Oh" Crowd had a good laugh. But he was close to a "T" with his conduct and comments.
2. End of same game. About 8 seconds left, Home down 1 shooting FT. Away calls TO. Partner goes over and checks the TO's. Says Home has 1 away has 0. Ball is shot and missed. Away grabs rebound dribbles to corner and is trapped. He signals for a TO and my parnter grants it. SOO they get the TO, plus the "T" for no more TO's. Home makes both and end up winning game. AFter, my partner and I talked about how to handle the situation differently. Any suggestions? My thought was since we knew Away had no more TO's we should not have granted the TO, even though he was signalling.
