The point that I am making here, is the fact that a lot of what we do is not to the "letter" of the wording in the books. I am not suggesting to you that you just ignore something. I am telling you that no one does this where I live and when I watch TV with the big boys working. If you feel that is wrong, it is going to be you (not me) that will draw attention to yourself that no one thinks are necessary. There are a lot of things you will never read in the NF Official's Manual, but will be required if you work for your association or assignor. There are things that you will have to do, that you will never find in the book at all. How many steps you stand behind the ball handler is something I have yet to read in the manual, but I know what I have been told to do and not to do when I have attended camps.

Peace
