Everyone's wish has been granted
Effective today, we're no longer doing table operations for basketball games. The reasoning behind this is that we're feeling highly under appreciated by being relegated this year to doing only Timer/Scoreboard operations in Gym 2 (JV & C-Squads only).
You can thank the AD for this decision as he doesn't seem to care if the Varsity Table Crew has knowledge of the rules or not. |
That's too bad-good table people are hard to find.

It wasn't just me they lost. They lost the whole family, so not only minus a few table officials, but also minus a couple of security/crowd control. |
Do you get to keep the taser? :D

Eagle-
What issues does the crew handling games in your main gym have in terms of rules knowledge? Kind of curious to see the difference between the crew I work on and your main gym crew! |

Before the new scoreboard was put in, wouldn't buzz the warning horn at 15 seconds remaining in TOs (new board has built-in TO Timer with auto horn). One of the real biggies: not being neutral/impartial!!!! |
Not my wish. I'd take a professional table crew any day.

Eagle though I personally give you a hard time here, I admire how seriously you take your responsibilities. As Juggles put it, I wish I had a professional table crew at all of my games. Sorry that this is happening to you, I hope this is only a brief hiatus for you all.

I don't understand your AD-If I'm an AD and have the opportunity to put people who worked state tournament qualifying games and a JUCO tournament on my Varsity table crew I do it because I also have a responsibility to the officials working my contests to provide competent personnel at the table-regardless of level.Eagle-is the cheering clock operator an teacher at the school?

The lunch lady/Varsity Timer is normally only ill one game night a year & it's a rarity that she misses games. To not be there for 2 games in 6 days is highly unusual. |

I have to ask. Who, other than you, has noticed/pointed out/complained about the deficiencies of this/these other table person(s)?
