The main difference between hoops & football is that you can take a little more time to make a decision. You'll have a leg up on other new officials because you're already used to ignoring most of the static that comes from the sideline (bench) area.
The one habit that will be hardest to break is running with your whistle in your mouth. Since fouls in football don't kill the play, I suggest you use a finger whistle at first.
