my first varsity game as LJ . 1st series . a quick pass to the flat on my side. Offense and defense players going up for the ball. I was sure it was intercepted but defenders back was toward me and the BJ had a better view. I made eye contact with the BJ and was suprised to see him awaiting my signal. Since I didn't see the ball I made no signal. no whistle . BJ called completed pass for offense. Defensive coach starts screaming at me that it was an interception. I hustled to the LOS smiling to myself. Preparation pays off.
My advice - if you don't see the ball don't blow the whistle.
