We are discussing going back to the 2 whistle game, after several years of 3 whistle. The conference coaches we are officiating in is complaining that, as officials we are to worried about position, proper switching, but most of all missing calls. The coaches feel with a 3 whistle officials we are missing calls because officials will not call something out of our area even when we see something that should been called.

The #1 Complaint the coaches have is a response from an official. "I seen it coach, but is was not my area.

The #2 Complaint we become lazy and are not as in tune with the game. Officials have the tendency to lose consentration.

The #3 Complaint is with a 3 whistle crew the game has become more physical, because of the # of fouls missed and not called. Due to lack of consenration & will not call out of one's area.

They feel the two person crew is more in control and has a better eye for the game.
