In order to maintain the decorum of this forum, please observe these guidelines when posting in the GALAXREF.com Forums:
1. No references to actual teams, players or officials – If you have a game situation you would like to discuss, please phrase it as Team A and Team B, or A1 checked B2, etc. No specific references to high school/college teams, specific players, coaches, or referees will be allowed!
2. No disparaging comments on officials, assignors, GLOA leaders. While a coach or parent may have the right to disagree with a call, this forum is not the place to question the competence or judgment of the officials. Head coaches have the ability to rate the game officials (or provide appropriate feedback) to the Association through ArbiterSports.com.
3. Interpretations will refer to specific rules in the current NFHS rulebook. Please cite rule numbers and/or page numbers from the appropriate rulebook when posing a question.
Without the benefit of seeing your game or having input from the official(s) who make an individual call, it is impossible to render opinions on judgment calls. We will try to establish if a ruling followed proper interpretation, if possible.
4. College games are played under NCAA rules, not NFHS. Please remember when watching a college game live or on television, that the rules for college play are different then high school.
5. Any posts that fail to follow these guidelines will be edited or removed at the sole discretion of the moderators or site admins. These guidelines are also subject to change at any time.
We hope to provide a forum where you can receive answers to your rules questions and increase your lacrosse rules knowledge. There are several experienced officials that are happy to lend their input to this forum. We hope you will take advantage of this learning opportunity this season!
