[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So where is the line or tolerance for celebrations after goals?  We have played 2 really good teams 2 weeks in a row and noticed both did a lot of celebration that appeared to be scripted, meaning not your normal fist pump high fives, but actual NFL level celebrations.  Is this a new trend?  Refs didn't seem to mind or care.  [/quote]

Stop them from scoring.  Why would the ref care.  No rule against it as long as it doesn't delay the restart or directly taunting the opponent.[/quote]

Our kids felt it was rubbing it in since we lost both games pretty badly.  At least they both stopped celebrating after they were up by 3-5 points, I'd had not seen that level of celebration in the past which is why i asked for thoughts here.  Our kids just normally do the simple jump and high five.  The first team did a synchronized back flip with 3 of the players (not sure we have 1 player that could do that) and the other did some type of in the air shoulder bump with the the entire team at once.

No it didn't delay the game, but since we were irritated with loosing it was salt on the wound. [/quote]

I think those celebrations sound awesome.  And it's "losing."[/quote]
