And so it ends, memorably...
I have been refereeing for 13 years. Never had a fight in a game.
Never. Until tonight. In a church league game. Hard fought game visitors up 11 with 50 seconds to go. I call a hold on home and go to report the foul, as I do, visitors coach is coming onto the floor, I tell him, back in the box coach, he says he wants to break up the fight, I turn and 2 guys are going at it, my partner between them. Another player begins to act up and I move him away from the group. We get everything back in order and go to the table. B1 for visitors has the personal foul #6 for the team fouls, T on 1 B1 and on A1 from the visitors team. 7 fouls on both teams. No shots. POI is visitors ball OOB. Game ends with home committing 3 fouls to stop the clock, visitors win by 8. Makes me happy the season is over. Hope next year ends better. Oh BTW, the 2 fighters, they were brothers playing on different teams.... |

Sorry you had to end on a sour note. I had my first fight this yr too. Well, one punch anyhow. No fun there!

Many years ago we were working a high school football game. After the home team scored, but before the extra point, I look in the end zone and my back judge is breaking up two players from the visiting team. Both trying to beat the tar out of each other.
After ejections were administered, head coach tells my wing that they are brothers and the younger one took offense to the older one telling him he was responsible for the touchdown. You can't make this stuff up. |

My church softball team had a coach. A coach who would intentionally bat us out of order when necessary because he knew the other teams (and umpire) wouldn't do anything about it.

Perfect example of why someone that calls themselves a "coach" in an adult church league is nothing short of hilarious. It's usually the least athletic guy on the team or some really old know-it-all that never could play the game, but has coaching and game insight unmatched this side of Adolph Rupp. And they let you know it.
