Threatened

[JugglingReferee]

So I was threatened at a men's league game this week.

Player came at me and said, "I'm going to get you!" He had to be physically restrained. I almost said "do it and you'll go to jail". lol

I asked for his name so that I can file a police report, but I don't believe he's actually going to come and find me. Still debating if I'm going to file.

Fwiw, my partner and I had 8 T's over two games with 2 ejections. I've already blacklisted the league for the rest of the season.

I've officiated two other leagues where the league was told to "shape up" or the officiating group would "remove out services". In those cases, I'd never been on the receiving end of a tirade, so I couldn't relate. I don't think that this league will "get to that stage", but now I know how these things progress.
