My reasoning here is that I know the AAU thing is a business and there is a completely different hierarchy when it comes to what's important - that's just the way it is. I let management handle things with belligerent people (unless it's during my game) because I know management does not want me dealing with the people who are paying the bills (coaches and fans). 99% of the time, they will back me up and we just move on. If I say something out of line or get myself in a situation where it even appears I acted inappropriately, I will likely bear the brunt of what happens. Bottom line is a T really doesn't punish anyone between games. Only time I would consider a T is if I hadn't walked off the court yet and he engaged me and the other team had a chance to tie or win with free throws. |

I can almost always find a way to clear out of the immediate court area between tournament games even if it is just moving into the area near an adjacent court, or stepping outside or "behind" some equipment stored in a corner of the gym.
If I'm stuck for a place to run I stay with my partner so that there is a "witness" to anything that's said. If it's after the game has "ended" and I really feel something is out of hand I'll approach the tournament director and let him/her deal with it. I'm avoiding any sort of T after the final horn/whistle in non-HS tournament such as youth or AAU. |

Terrapins Fan: Oh yes there is quite a lot you can do. You cannot charge him with a TF but he is a representative of the schools involved that evening. 1) I am stopping the game and I am having Game Management remove him from the gym. 2) I will let the varsity game officials know what I did so that they can be alert to any possible misconduct by the HC. 3) I will send a Game Report to my StateHSAA the very next day.

To answer Longhorn's question, I may issue a T in the spirit of "what you don't call, you condone." It may be ridiculous at the time, but it would certainly prevent someone from making a habit of any post-game whining. The penalty isn't just amount the moment; it can be about preventing the behavior, and saving the next guy from having to deal with it.

I work a lot of the AAU circuit in the DC area and what someone else said about it being a business is spot on. If a coach or spectator does or says something out of line to the point that I cant handle it myself I'm going straight to tournament administration and having them handle it. In my experience and observations they always have. If they didnt then I just wouldnt be working those tournaments any more. I really don't see what a T accomplishes in this setting when there is usually no set rule for Ts or ejections carrying over from one game to the next. |

It's actually one of my pet peeves in camp or multi-game venues when officials walk or sit around in their stripes (especially those who untuck their shirts ).
Put a shirt or jacket on immediately after the game and it makes it easier to go unnoticed.

This wouldn't help much around here. We tend to see the same coaches a lot so they know who we are, plus we tend to be the only ones in the gym wearing black shorts (who aren't teenagers). We're easy to find if someone wants to find us. Also, I'm not going to run and hide - most are smart enough not to approach us. If they do I can handle it, but I won't get myself into trouble in the way I handle it.
