Still in the Mesh Bag at Half-Time

Team managers' vernacular of orange duty as a binding eligibility lexicon for affiliated junior programs

A paper from the School of Emergent Priorities interviews 36 junior-sport team managers about who brings the oranges, reports the allocation in eight phrases of the managers' own, and records the Office of Community Engagement's adoption of those phrases as the Sideline Stewardship Lexicon, the sole admissible language of a quarterly Orange Duty Return on which affiliated programs' ground-hire rebate now depends, with no exception sustained for more than a single review cycle.
