Big,

Take Candyland.. much easier to play (for us officials) and it doesn't take as long!

Once you get comfortable with knowing where your primary and secondary areas of coverage are as well as picking up the rotations, it still boils down to getting good/open looks and calling the game. Hopefully, some good partners - with a good pregame - will help you relax and do the best you can.
Yup, I was lucky enough to have two good partners my first night of 3-man, certainly helped. After I got comfortable with the areas and everything, I was able to work on the first part of Tom's post and knowing when to rotate as L. Good stuff Tom!
