Besides all the other good advice given above, I recommend the following, to train your eye to watch the players and not the ball. When at a game, watch a different player on each play while not watching the ball or who has the ball. As an official you need to focus on the players, while most spectators watch the ball. This is difficult, if not impossible, watching TV games. Do this when you go to a game, no matter if youth, high school or any other level.
