I beg to differ! I use the wheel when I am the up official. I take a big binder clip, one of those black C shaped things with chrome extensions that will fold either way, and I clip that baby on the net, center on the rope so it kind of hangs to either side of the rope and I can easily grab the wheel and turn it as the sides rotate! Works great. It may be a security blanket for me but I am SO much more in the game when I have it up there with me. Also I can glance down during the action and see if I missed something(second guess if 6 was back row). Also I have yet to have the teams waiting on me this year to write down a sub on my wheel. One more tip since we are on the wheel kick, get a 2nd one. Now you have can have one with team A on the right team B on the left and one with team B on the right and A on the left. Great thing is a lot of teams dont change their lineups so after the 1st game erase the subs from the outer ring and you usually have your card all ready for game 3!
