However, this judgement can be very powerful and every effort should be made to master the skills for applying it correctly. [/B][/QUOTE]
To apply the concept of A/D correctly you need to do as many games as possible at different skill levels. As an example when I first started officiating I would have called an "over the back" even though the "the right player" secured the rebound with no problem. I also may have called a "hack" even if the dribbler was not affected and the call cost him/her an easy lay-up. Now I would pass or more rightly consider the contact incidental. Sometimes it's unavoidable but it can get frustrating if every time up the floor there's a whistle. Just my opinion.
