I had a coach point it out the other night. "We have six fouls and they have zero." They were up by four when she said it. I chaulked it up to her attempt to get us to go a bit easier on her team...

How do you report a pre-start T. Let's say a player dunks five minutes before the start or a coach makes a change to the book within ten minutes, how do you make the call?

I'm a third year official, so I've recently been in your shoes. The game has progressively slowed down for me since about the middle of last year. I have a long way to go, but I do feel more...

I seemed to never get calls like that back in the day either, 6'5 260 or so in hs, and officials seemed to allow the opposition quite a bit leeway whacking away at me but I seemed to draw a quick...

Not scheduling certain teams/coaches

Just curious, I've heard a handful of officials say that they won't work at a certain school because the coach is a jerk. How many of ya's do not schedule certain schools because of their coaches? ...

Everyone gets a free shot at the officials. What are the coaches showing the kids when they continuously harp about the officiating? As far as waiting outside, so be it. I'm in Mark P's camp on...

T Worthy?

A was making a push late in the game to close the gap to four with just less than a minute left in the game.

I agree. If we all just clamped down I think it'd make for a better game for everyone.

Thanks, everyone!

I was hoping the game would be on the site for viewing today, but it isn't posted.

Although it appears I'm wrong, here's my thinking.

A2 is airborne and secures control, which I thought establishes player and team control, and, as a result, the throw-in ends. I thought at that...

I don't think it's a newer officials judgment in many cases, it's a newer persons ability to quickly process what they've seen, or didn't see, and make a split second decision to take action or not. ...
