BITS, Billy:
Thanks for posting two excellent lists. Bill, I still have one you posted two seasons ago (my first) and have found it a helpful guide in developing my own pre-game. I'll replace it with this one (cutting out the CT mechanics) as you were good enough to add the 2010-2011 NFHS changes.
I'm going to add in some of the points BITS had listed on his....I especially liked the one "talking vs. blowing."
After two seasons this stuff is starting to sink in. I remember when I first read Billy's list that I thought I knew what he was meant when he talked about things like primary coverage areas, screens at the elbows, game management, eye contact, communication, etc. Got out on the floor and didn't have a clue. Slowly though game by game and through watching more experienced refs work their V games after my JV I've learned the importance of all this and feel that I'm actually starting to get better.
Thanks for the help.
