HOW DO WE DEAL WITH STUFF THAT JUST AIN'T RIGHT?

| Being an Official can be Tough work |
THE BARON says this...
For those who know me, I've been a player, coach, captain, linesman, owner and lead Referee.
Of all those titles, a Referee was the most difficult thing I ever had to do.
You are to be impartial, run a game for so many minutes (ensuring its smooth execution) and make decisions within seconds (three of the most).
There are many good referees.
There are some excellent referees.
There are a hand full of the best referees.
There are also a handful of the really terrible.
When an official breaks with policy and commits harassment, discrimination or threatens (violence, etc) that Referee needs to be told.
It's not our duty to tell them. T
here are options, including the Referee's Association and the League itself.
No player should ever feel threatened by an official.
If you do find yourself in a spot that doesn't have to do with the game, please alert your Captain, Assistant Captain or me (the Baron).
We will work on getting resolution.
And when reporting the incident, keep to the facts you know.
Hearsay has no bearing on what needs to be done.
