First AAU Follies of the Off-Season

[Scrapper1]

I forgot to include that I called 2 intentional fouls from behind during fast-breaks (one shirt-grab, one bear hug).

My partner called an intentional foul for fouling the inbounder. He was going to call it a technical, I had to correct him. During the free throws, I had this conversation with the coach who got the free throws.

Him: Is it a flagrant or a technical?
Me: It's an intentional personal, Coach.
[Long pause]
Him: So is that 2 foul shots or 4?
Me: [rolling eyes] Just 2, Coach.

Sounds like we were on the same floor.

I swear that some coaches think all of the rules are on that tournament sheet at the table.

Had a coach reach into his bag this summer to try to prove that they only got two TOs for the entire game rather than per half. He never brought it to me, though. Good thing for him that I was right.
