Three man should be learned in 1) camps, or 2) low level games like Middle School. You should
never have a guys first three man game be a Varsity game. I should know, my first three man game was a Varsity game. It did not go well.

This is the hardest thing for guys just starting to do three man. They have all these two man tendencies that they need to relearn cuz the angles are all different. Three man also requires an awareness of where your partners are during a rotation. A new guy will be so overwhelmed with his new responsibilities that he will forget to officiate and thus make bad or no calls at all.

When huddling to count the shot you should have simply said, "the shot was good, go in front of the table and count it". Don't hang the guy out to dry in front of everyone.
