Your experience is pretty much typical for your first JV/Varsity - nothing really prepares you at the younger levels for the ball handling criteria at JV, and as R2 for the varsity, you just need to remember when teams are subbing. By the second set, you should have a pretty good idea of that.
One NICE thing about working R2 for JV/Varsity, that 99.9% of the time, you won't have to worry about the scorekeepers. One of the biggest headaches at the middle school level matches, is that you are are more likely to have a neophyte scorekeeper - either a 12 year old kid, or volunteer adult. In a lot of the better programs, one of their JV players will hang around before/after practice, and score.
