There was contact on the baseline that my partner Ryan Jones missed. The player was hit in the face and did not inform Ryan and walked with the ball. Ryan blew the whistle and called traveling. At that point I turned and saw the boy put his hand to his face indicating he was injured. As I ran over to the player, the Snow Canyon head coach came out on the floor and was screaming at Ryan. I called an immediate technical foul and then walked the coach back to the bench.
The assistant coach had gone to the player who was hurt. The head coach continued screaming at Ryan. I tried to calm him and asked him to talk to me. But he kept screaming at Ryan. I warned him twice that he would receive a second technical if he did not calm down. I issued the second technical when he did not comply. I then asked him to leave the floor. He refused and continued screaming at Ryan who by this time was at the other end of the floor. I continued to tell him to calm down and leave. He refused. I warned him that he was about to get a third technical. He still continued screaming. I issued a third technical and then asked the bench personnel to get administration and security. That is when the assistant grabbed the head coach and pushed him towards the exit.
I spoke with the assistant for a few minutes and he agreed with me that I gave him several warnings that the head coach ignored. During this whole time my demeanor was calm.
After discussing the matter with the other officials from the other game I realize I probably should not have issued the third technical and instead summoned security after his refusal to leave after the second technical. |
