That does not mean there are officials that cannot successfully work both, but there are many that cannot. And this is just one person's opinion, but it seems to be a common opinion.

Jrut,
I am glad it's just an opinion. When I was able to officiate I worked both sides. A whistle is a whistle it does not matter which side you work. Let the truth be told, I believe most (some) prefer boys because a lot more incidental contact can be passed on. JMO
