Rather than slow whistle, I like to think of it as a patient whistle. The better athletes you have, the more you can call a game advantage/disadvantage. It takes time. The hard part is to be consistant, depending on the quality of play. An example from my experience was that last summer in our state games (like a state olympics) I had a 1A varsity HS team playing a 4A all star sophmore team. It was an advantage/disadvantage nightmare. The small school had smaller, weaker, slower players that could not play through the contact the 4A kids could. Luckily it was a blow out and the game was decided about 4 minutes in.
