NCAA 4 On The Floor

[ballgame99]

Had a coach send a girl to scorer's table to check in, table notified him she wasn't in the book, so he called her back but still pulled a player out. I said "coach, you want a 5th player?", he said no, just leave it. !!??? OK, coach.

Later in the game he sends a sub to the table, who promptly runs strait on th floor, hockey style (ie didn't wait for a dead ball, much less to be ushered in by an official). What do you do in that situation!!??

First situation, not allowed. Coach must play with 5 if he has 5 eligible. "Just leave it" is not an option.

Second situation: T (unless it's early in the YMCA season, then you can educate the coach and player)

Well we got 1 out of 2 correct (we T'd them up for #2).

In our rural state, the junior high populations are getting so small that often times the jr. high teams have 5th and 6th graders on them. Last year one school had two fourth graders. We're talking knee high to a grasshopper. I was not blessed with an overwhelming vertical presence, and, next to these two kids (they were twins), I felt like Wilt Chamberlain. Neither one could quite grasp the concept of checking in at the scorers table. They would just buzz out onto the court, quicker than quick. Each time we would stop them, counsel them...to little or no avail. What do you do? They were just so darn cute.
