Why does this constantly happen?

I have worked summer leagues where this is an option and I agree that it is a great tool.
However, when it is not an option and an official suggests that you do that it might be a good idea to agree. If not, the next foul on that player just might be flagrant Not saying I would do that...but it could happen. Would you rather sit the player for a few minutes or sit them for the rest of the game? |

It is summer, that is why?
Are you telling me where you live they play all the rules during summer that they play during the regular season? Where I am and even in my experience in other states, summer games are running clock games where you are lucky if they even keep track of fouls, individual points or any regular stats. There are games were we will not even shoot bonus FTs like a normal game and we certainly do not have the same substitution standards. The purpose of summer leagues are to be exposed to their high school coaches and players and give kids a chance to play or run their systems so that they are familiar with what they will be doing when real practice starts. Heck teams are even lucky to have all their players playing during any particular game, league or tournament. It seems like there is this total disconnect for what summer is for most of us. Peace

It isn't a huge amount but it is cheaper to use 6, 7, 8, and 9 than to use double digits. An extra dollar or so per digit, front and back, on either a reversible jersey or two sets adds up with 10-15 players.

Thanks for the replies. The summer camp actually did keep fouls which is why I would have preferred just calling an offensive foul if he saw it that way, so that maybe the player would have learned something from the play. And like I said I complied happily, just wanted some clarification since I couldn't find any reference for the situation in a rulebook... unless my players jersey got pulled out from the wrestling.
Thanks for the helpful replies. |

I know I have a league that only has numbers on the front for this reason. Pain in the butt to try and find a number sometime. But, they have a running clock, so, it's not that big a deal to ask them to turn around.

penalty box
A few years back, my son was playing in a junior high summer tournament in Oregon. One of his teammates was a known hot head who was getting close to boiling. When he got too physical on a play, the ref called a common foul, then came over to the bench and said, "32 out, two minutes, pushing." I thought to myself, "We're at a hockey game?"
Coach put him on the bench for 2 minutes, the kid cooled down, came back in and finished the game with no problems. At that level, at that venue, I thought it was a great piece of officiating. |
