Taking a small sided kid for a u16

Was doing a tournament and brought my kid as a fourth to handle game sheets and keep the bench in line. There's just something about a youth girl acting as the Forth to keep everyone nice and polite.

One of the games the other game ran late and I went from ar1 to solo centre and I told my kid whose a small sided but trained to do entry level and is grounded in offsides to take the flag and go be AR1.

She kept up, and gave the game up when the others arrived, but I put them on the line.

So I guess is it better to run with a small sided youth but grounded in the laws than solo? Thoughts?

Delay of restart (on a free kick)

How do you deal with players who block a free kick in a very bold and clear move to stand on the ball?

So it's a caution for those who deliberately delay the restart of a game. Typically I award a caution when a player stands on the ball, especially if it's less than a metre from the ball and play dumb. I will say "step back. Now." Before issuing the yellow.

Most times they'll just slowly and half arsely walk back a little. Most teams take advantage of this to do a quick kick because I don't call for the ceremonial restart unless we're in the defender one third of the field. In the chaos the attacking team usually clears the ball. I'm usually positioned to watch for that.

However from time to time, I have players who look at me with a dumb expression while literally blocking the ball. "Walk me ref". Often in a very rude and disrespectful tone.

And I just pull the caution out then inform them that it's now a restart on my whistle.

Most times this work and no one pulls that stunt again for the remainder of the game. However especially in youth (u13-15) they get upset and protest. One time I even carded the coach after he yelled at his kid to stand on it, then protested my caution to the player and argued. Only once has someone kept arguing and demanding I walk him while still standing next to the ball. So I tossed him.

I find that the smart players stand about two or three metres and pretend to be dumb but cooperative while delaying the restart.

I'm sorely tempted to take dramatic, exaggerated steps when they do that, or just should I stick to the caution for the clear delay of restart? Or do you have other suggestions?

If cursing was allowed during the berman era, which series would have considerable language?

Serious question but shitty views absolutely welcome

If cursing was allowed for the Berman series... TNG, ds9, voy, ent...

Which one would be considerable cursing and which species would have... Creative curses?

Would Janeway say "tuvok, I'm in a bitchy mood, kill them for me."

Thoughts?
