[quote=Anonymous]Ugh! Seriously? DQing 4 kids in an 8 & under heat of 6? Bragging about, "I'm DQing so many kids, the officials can't keep up!" Then the crazy swim parents actually justify this nonsense. But what do I know, I refereed Youth, HS and NCAA lacrosse and youth and HS football for a combined 20 yrs of officiating. In ALL sports except swimming, the expectations from the officials are lessened for younger athletes. If youth hoops were officiated the way that swimming is, the scores would be 0-0 and the refs would be the only people that got to do anything. 20-30 traveling calls and 20-30 double dribble calls.....game over. And the crazy swim folks wonder why they can't get kids to swim on the team....maybe officiate the way that every other sport in the world is officiated! A kid goes to check their time.....DQ! No time for you, go home, you suck. And before the trolls strike, my kids have been DQ'd, but none were amoungthe 4/6 heat above.[/quote]
