This point makes me wonder if you also officiate, or have at some time. Or do most coaches look for the foul mechanic?

I have, but not anymore, except volunteering at school functions (teacher/student game, e.g.).

I don't know about other coaches. I always look for the mechanic when it's on my team. I especially want to know if I didn't get a good view of the play.
