[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When my kid was about 10 we had a really close tournament game. A kid in our team scored and the goalie punched our player during the play (which we learned about later) and then about 10 seconds after the play ended, he walked over and kicked our player in the ribs. Our player was still on the ground from the punch at the time and 10 seconds is more than long enough for everyone to have stopped moving and for everyone to see it happening.

The parents on our team were fairly vocal about wanting a red card, but also pretty low key otherwise.  The other teams parents flipped out, supporting their player.

Play had to stop for 20-30 mins while the ref called his boss to ask what to do and in the end they just made all the parents leave the game to avoid any drama - ie the shuttle both teams parents off about 30 feet from the game but also stupidly pushing the parents from both teams closer to each other.

Our team just wanted to forfeit and leave rather than deal with all the psychos, but the ref ended up re starting the game finally and we played out the last few minutes left after the 20 minutes of game time got skipped. At the end, the coach of the violent kid was yelling at the ref becasue he wanted all the time added back to the clock where the ref had been calling people to get help on what to do

In the end i think they gave a yellow card. Or maybe no card.

This was a travel team, but the third team so it was little kids with nothing at all at stake. [/quote]

Was this at the Arlington tournament?[/quote]
