5. Tell them why we do things a certain way (PCA, angles, Adv./disadva) - not just what to do.

We noobies say thanks to all the vets who help us.
I cannot help but echo the last line. To the vets that helped us out.... Thanks.

On another note, it may be helpful to observe some games with this new official. Not games that you are working but games that have 2 (or three) officials that you think are good officials. Talk about what they are doing right or even wrong. Try to pick something up from watching a game an put it into the newbeis game.
