Don't feel that you need to run the show. Depend on your crew. Tell them that. They will respond. I assume they will already know that you will be doing your first V game with the hat. Have a good...no GREAT pregame. Prepare it from now. There are parts of pre games you have been in that you like and that you dont. Same pace...every play. Commicate with your crew on every down. Hustle back and forth to your position. If you dont look like its your first game back there, no one will give you much grief. Dont be afraid to listen to your crew. Take your time and above all DONT FORGET TO BREATHE. If you know your mechanics....have good strong signals and communicate...calling only what absolutely has to be called from that position, you will be fine. Have fun, because this is the game that all your stories will be based on when you are an old wiley veteran that you will tell a rookie ref. "I remember when". Good luck. You will do just fine.
