Correct me if I'm wrong... It's getting late for me and had 2 1/2 hours of homework before this so my brain is fried...
And just to mention... This is my first year reffing in MN... It's been great so far and have worked with lots of nice people and well... Not-so-nice people. I read this forum regularly and has been vital in my understanding of the rules and how to apply them... Thank you to all of you who spend time out of their lives to help others! I have been scheduled 41 games (9th grade and JV contests) throughout the season and the varsity refs and the assignor like the professionalism I show on and off the court when I'm watching the varsity games. And I have you all to thank for the tips and what not to make this sometimes challenging opportunity fun and enjoyable... Enough of my babbling... Have a good one All!!

It can be a little trickier than that sometimes, as the ball can, under certain circumstances, gain front court status without itself ever touching in or being in player possession in front court. Check out this year's case book & you'll see what I mean....
Glad you're enjoying officiating - keep working hard at it & you'll do just fine!
