Sometimes, refTN, you have to get into a situation of 'game management'. That is one of the things that you are judged on in a camp situation. You know the rules, you know what a violation is vs. a foul, you know book definitions. But do you know when to 'pass' on a foul and just call it out of bounds? do you know when to call a push on a rebound vs. a no call because team A got the ball anyway? Those are some of the things that assignors look for, not how many calls you made or how many violations you picked up. I'm hoping this is more of what the superior meant when he made the statment to you, but I wasn't there so I don't know.

And to second JR, I hope you made the call because he stepped OVER the line, and not on it.
