These guys are giving good advice. I would add one thing. Don't get your feet planted in cement. The free throw line extended is a place to start. It is a good home base, but you are not glued to that spot. You may take a step down, or up to get a good look. Try to move so that you get a good LANE OF VISION. You don't need to move if you can see. You DO need to move if you can't. If you are seeing backs, you need to move to try to get an open look. One more thing. I think when we start to referee, we take the attitude of,"that might be a foul. I better call it!" We should take the opposite attitude of, "That might be a foul. I am not sure so I am not going to call it." Call the obvious. I hope that helps.
