Re: POLL - Penalties

I like the fact that you announce who did it and what they did. It's a learning experience and if an audience member was watching that team, they can say, oh, now I get it. Especially to those of us working with rookie teams, it makes our jobs 100% easier if you announce the problem instead of making me try to describe it in "Beth-terms." Also, while all of us in the organization should, in theory, know what the penalties are and know everything about the whole entire game (yes, there was a bit of sarcasm in that), there are parents, grandparents, friends and media that are also observing our game. If part of our ambition is to expand the program and get more people to know about it, we need to make our announcements "non-FIRST person friendly." So keep making the announcements, let's make sure everyone understands what's going on!
