2)I am C...ball is dribbled across top of key area into my primary, but I have post players which are a competitive match-up and don't want to let that go yet. I step down away from the ball or turn my body so I am looking at post, that tells my T not to leave the ball yet...
The more I learn about the women's game, the less I like it. You rotate ball-side, the ball is in your primary, and you don't officiate on-ball? The ball comes right at you into your primary, but you don't officiate on-ball? I'm sorry, but that makes absolutely no sense to me whatsoever; especially in the first case.

Wouldn't it make more sense just to say that when the ball is in your primary, officiate the ball and trust your partners to officiate off-ball, since that's what they're supposed to do anyway.
Chuck-

Quick question for you about the mens side. If the player is dribbling the ball from T's primary to C's primary and you are the C... Do you pick up the player right away??
