How is a 2029 parent allowed to referee in the 2029 NGLL games of the same exact league where their daughters compete? Do we really not have regulations to control for this? John Brock, parent of twins on 2029 M&D black, was the referee for the Coppermine black vs Skywalkers game today. At least 2 girls from M&D black 2029 last year now play for skywalkers. This is not just an issue of bias but intimidation can come into play in situations like this as well. Does the NGLl not have regulations to control for this?
What other games has he reffed for in our league?
Zero. He was asked to officiate because they were short on officials. So either he officiated or there were none.
And you do realize this happens in HS all the time right? In one county there is a father and uncle who ref games and their daughter plays on a school in the county.
So get used to it. Shortage of officials. May want to be happy your daughter got to play.
Having watched 3 games at Copperplex yesterday (this one included) I have to say ALL the officials did a great job. There is human error that comes into play which seems obvious but with as thick as some people on here are it was worth mentioning again.
