Fairly sure I handled this more or less correctly, but would appreciate any other pointers you might have.
1. Fairly low-level men's game on Saturday between two teams that are evenly matched.
2. Captain's briefing included, as usual, warning that questioning one-off calls is not productive; only interested in limited conversation about much consistent problems.
3. From KO, multiple players on both sides giving me lots of advice/reaction to calls -- nothing abusive, just a lot of chatter.
4. About 10 minutes in, players quieted down.
5. Then, with about 10 minutes to go in 1st half, problem resurfaces.
6. At half, speak briefly with captains telling them needs to stop immediately.
7. 5 minutes into second half, PK to Red for disputing call.
8. 2 minutes later, YC to Blue for disputing call.
9. Calm restored for rest of match; binned player apologizes afterward and agrees I had to make an example of him.
Anything else you can think that I should've done?
