Three pieces of advice:
1. Make sure your crew knows, by words AND DEEDS, that you as the referee cannot do it alone...that there are three teams on that field.
2. Encourage your umpire to really get into the game. He is in the middle of everything...sees all, hears all. If he has a bad game, the entire crew will lose control.
3. Instill in your wings to communicate, communicate, communicate with the coach(s), preferably by name. "Coach Wilson, your no. 68 held and it opened the hole for that gain." The number one complaint of coaches for years has been that the official right there won't talk to him.
