I wonder how much I should engage with the parents in the game when they are questioning my decisions which is in turn affecting the players. As the coach/referee I understand that I can be accused of being bias far more than incompetent. In my heart of hearts I know that I feel I am tougher on my own team than others, but then I haven't been independently assessed for my own team.
From my game on Sunday morning, the opposition coach is fine and talks to me in a calm fashion over issues. His parents are not in the same vein unfortunately. My problem is that in an earlier game this season, one or two of my parents shouted at him (which we were not pleased with at all).
Thoughts?
