I went to the camp where a college coordinator of officials told us NEVER to call travelling unless its rediculous.
Those kinds of comments always drive me nuts. I wonder if he really meant to say "call it if it's obvious" rather than ridiculous. I think that either extreme is bad. Ignoring a travel hurts the game. One official calling 15 travels per game hurts the game too. Common sense, just call the travels you are sure of.
I then had the opportunity to work with a D1 official in a high school tourney. I passed on a couple border-line travelling calls and the other official ripped me a new one, I mean, constructively criticized me at half time.
Good for him. I appreciate college officials who realize that the high school game is different and that the FED wants to call it a little more "by the book."
This situation is like so many others, when in Rome.....
Yep.
