We could toss on two techs, but had to adhere absolutely to the same-ref-doesn't-give-2-T's-to-same-player-and-toss mentality, no matter what (although many were too hesitant to ring a player up). There was no tossing on 1 unless it was a fight.

Say no more. Been there, and officiating your peers -- especially at that age -- is as it's tough as it gets. Looking back, I can I think of a time or two that I should have tossed someone, when I didn't. Familiarity indeed does breed contempt.
Personal comments toward you are a T. Profanity is a T. Personal comments toward you with profanity are flagrant. And, as BNR said, anything racial/sexual/etc., is flagrant.

If you have the NFHS Casebook, review Case 10.4.1 Situation F for an example where a Flagrant T might be an option.

Interesting... I got my start doing intramurals as well and handed out technical fouls with no regard for human life. Had no qualms about tossing people myself because I knew my partners either didn't care or didn't have it in them to do it

Yes, this is interesting. I find that many rec leagues bend the other way and are quick to issue flagrants, even if they don't call them that and probably sometimes don't even know the term.
"You! Get out!"

I also got my start in intramurals in college. Great time, some partners better than others, eventually got to work in Assembly Hall (Indiana).
Anyways. There were nights, working at least two games, where I'd have four or more tech's. I honestly didn't care if a player swore because he missed a shot or made a bad pass or whatever, but the minute he swore at us, or at his opponent, bang. Officiating peers is tough, no doubt. Those games can get out of hand if you don't have the cajones to take care of business. |

I had the same policy, something said when you are upset at yourself or team was ok as long as it couldn't be heard net court over, but anything at me or in taunting an opponent and you're whacked quick. |

Oh I definitely was not shy with the technicals, but they made sure they were warranted. They were just religious about same ref not giving 2. It was so bad though, sometime a player would say something directly to one of my partners, less than a foot away, and the partner would look at me to call the T. I gave it a few seconds and when the whistle never came near their lips I whacked the guy myself...
