The hardest thing at the beginning for most officials is to get your arm up along with your whistle. This is very common for all of us at the start. Usually it takes half the season to get that mechanic to be apart of you. Just practice, practice, practice and you will get it. You do not have to actually blow a whistle. Just simulate the whistle but practice on the signal. You might have heard this before. The best way to get down your mechanics is to simply get in the mirror and practice so you can see what you look like.
