Incident Details: Referee missed a double dribble. It was impossible for them to see as this happened coming down the left hand sideline, the trail referee cannot see the players hands from this position. Hank proceeded to argue with the trail referee about the missed call. The referee explained that he understands but he could not see it from his position. Hank continued to argue with the referee and accuse him of causing his team to lose. The game finished and Hank then approached the referee and continue to harass him aggressively. I told Hank the referee has heard him and has explained the situation and therefore he needs to leave. Hank ignored this and continued to harass our referee. I asked Hank a further 3-4 times to stop and leave him alone where he then shouted “you’re not the boss of me” and continued to harass. He then spoke to his team as normal after the game, when leaving the facility he walked past the referee, staring at him intensely and shaking his head the whole way out in attempt to intimidate our referee.

Officials: Ngakau H, Thomas S
