I actually did that years ago. Mainly because I needed to understand the basics and how officials interpret an action to be a "called foul".
53 fouls is extreme, IMO. Maybe they were all deserved, but there needs to be consistency in officiating. It isn't that I want different "kinds" of fouls called for my team as opposed to the other; but at least call the same way throughout the game! It's difficult to know how to coach the kids when the officials are all over the place.

I totally agree Hitter. I believe the officials need to come together before the game and be on the same page as for the hand check, bumps, or whatever. This way all officials SHOULD call the same fouls.

This is an excellent idea. We played at South Laurel the other night, and the officiating was sub-par. (I'm being kind here, too....just ask South Laurel!!) This game had two head butts to the groin area, hard enough to put these players out of the game for a while.....no call. Also, South Laurel and 2 out of bounds and one intentional foul called; all incorrect. However, the most noticeable faux pas was the goal tending that happened and a NO call. How can 3 officials miss a goal tend?!? This wasn't a matter of of judgement either; it was very noticeable and just ignored.
