I swear, regardless of how many seasons/yrs you've been officiating, if you don't know 3-person mechanics, don't take the game.

It sucks to work a 3-person game with two seasoned high school officals who don't know the 3-person game. You could be working for 30 yrs, state finals, or whatever, if you don't know the 3-person game, you're a NOOB.

What sucks more is when they are assignors in your association.

haha - nice day!
We have some grizzled veterans in our group who did 2-person for about 25 or 30 years. They struggled with 3-person at first. I didn't hate them for it. They knew how to blow their whistle and get the calls right, even if we did have too many double-whistles at times and if they missed rotations.
