We had a game situation where a coach who started the game with 13 and after 3 injuries and being down by 30 wanted to speak to the opposing coach about shortening the game, which is possible by mutual consent of the opposing coaches and the Referee. He called a timeout and calmly walked out to the WH and informed him what he wanted to do and the two of them calmly walked over to the opposing sideline and then we all went home.

NO. I would not let him walk across my field. And if he blew through my stop sign he'd be flagged, and likely reported (to whatever authority matters depending on the level of the game). But in the OP, there was no official there stopping the guy.

That's just not going to happen. I don't work a single game around here without a contract. And supposing that I did work youth football without a contract -- I'm also an officer of two officiating associations -- good luck getting any competent officials after I'm done recommending to everyone that they not take your games.

a) take both their teams to another field off of school property where the AD, principal, etc. won't be able to stop them b) find and use a competent officiating crew that is not part of any association c) be content with the results of that game, regardless of how it goes for them d) get the state association to accept the results of a game that it did not sanction e) accept the personal liability risk for playing a game in a manner inconsistent with THEIR contracts f) do so in a manner that no parents or fans will be angered that the game was not played in the time and location promised and subsequently complain ... then the coaches really don't need me on the field. I'm willing bet my house that it doesn't happen in THIS country before the heat death of the universe, with the coaches keeping their jobs. |

Facetiousness-challenged? I'm just saying there might be reasonable circumstances wherein opposing coaches might want to confer during the game without the R's being in on it.

The one you posited was about as ridiculous as possible. Please feel free to name one possible (not potential) scenario where the R would or should not be included in such a discussion during a timeout.
