I know of not a single official that works for the NF. I do not get my license for the NF. My state does not even hand out the NF Official's Manual anymore because in general they do not use the NF's position on all mechanics. And in the position I am currently in, this is not taught at all by clinicians state wide unless they are ignoring IHSA Mechanics. You are not from my state, but I can only speak to what I know.

Which is another reason the Lead does not need a count.

Once again you are focused on NF Mechanics which has already been proven many times on this board mean nothing if states do not want to follow them. Hence the conversation we had about Louisiana and their "no flex" 3 Person Mechanics. The NF only gives a mechanics book to help standardize mechanics if there is no mechanic from individual states or organizations.

I have no problem with references to NF Mechanics. But understand it may not mean anything if you live in a place that does not interpret those mechanics the same way. I do not think that statement you quoted applies across the board and for every type of situation. The point of that statement is to say that each official can call fouls and violations. There are still things that each official is going to do based on other factors.
