Question 4: Did I understand your post correctly?
1.) A fan observing officials to learn nfhs rules.
2.) Please reference previous posts concerning fans/ parents etc coming onto the court without being beckoned, and the very strong opinions expressed.
3.) due to my limited experience as a rec league ref, and what I thought was correct at the time ; he appeared to be the umpire or lead official by his center positioning ,he administered the jump , during pregame took the center position,and seemed to go to both sides to shake hands and encourage the other 2 ref's before recieving the game ball to begin. now ,after studying 2-3,4,and 5, I realize i've got it backwards and actually mean the refferee and not the 2 umpires . But I did speak to the right guy and actually addressed him as " yo , ref " .
4) I think so ?
