Officiating
« on: October 08, 2016, 04:31:33 pm »
Are the refs in the game to watch the health of the boys or just to collect a check.. the game in bville today vs Jenks was the worst game I have ever seen blatant blocks in the back a few late hits on QB a missed fumble call the boy gave the ref the ball and they gave it to the other team!!! Not much on jumping on refs but totally fail on their side today nothing against Jenks but when it's obvious make the call..

Jenks played 4 different games at Bartlesville today, which game in particular are you talking about?  To say the officials don't have the best interest (health) of the players in mind is a pretty strong accusation.  If you would like to send some film I will be happy to review it.

I have been to the players safety coaching clinic and this game was not what they were teaching at that clinc. Stacking one side on a kickoff. Heck not one face mask called and we all know ow that happens all the time but can't call a simple in your face block in the back that happens time and time again... your refs are not saints own up to the missed calls and fix it. Thanks😊

The infc refs do a great job. There human. If you want to complain so much, how about you become a ref and see what's it's like. Go up to okc and watch those little league refs there horrible. We take for granted that were given high school officials to call our games.

You want the officials to get better?  Send the film so we can review and go over it with the officials as I asked for earlier.  Your accusations about the officials not caring about the players health is baseless, that is all I was taking up for.  If they blew a call or a number of calls as you say, we will review and get better.

We have very good officiating this year. I have been coaching in the infc for over 9 years and have had very good officiating. Not perfect and not mistake free but none of us are perfect. I also know from experience that I am more critical of them after a loss. I have noticed this year the officials have been very attentive to the safety of the players. Several times this year they have stopped the game to check on a player who seems hurt or dinged. Also I have had them warn one of my own players after he hit someone in the back. Just my 2 cents but I have been impressed this year with my officials. Keep up the good work.

Bruin-  based on your other comments on the forum, I assume you're talking about the 5th grade game against Jenks Silver (I HAVE to assume since you won't even tell the Director of Officials on here which game it was)    and I'd like to know what your idea of stacking one side of the line on kickoffs is, because every time Silver kicked off, they had 5 guys on each side of the kicker, and the refs told them on their first kickoff to get 5 yard splits, so this couldn't have been a recurring thing, because obviously the refs were paying attention to this from the start.  Then as far as blocking in the back is concerned,  I know of one instance  where they called a block in the back against silver, where the player they called it on didn't even touch anyone (verified on film by coaches), the bartlesville player fell down, but because of where the ref was positioned, it looked like a block in the back.  Also, it probably doesn't help the cause when 2 minutes into the game after the first score, the ref forces a team to burn a timeout because the coach is already giving him a 5 minute rant on why he's doing a horrible job, and continues the whole game.  Look, I know refs make mistakes and it can get frustrating, especially for the team on the losing end of a game, but if you parce the video down play by play OBJECTIVELY, I'm sure you could find equal amount of mistakes on both teams that would essentially even out the officiating.  just my opinion, though.
