I wasn't aware that I was playing too deep until a more experienced official observed me at my request and advised me to move farther into the front court when play dictates. I was at the 28' line or a bit in front, but had not really had anyone tell me that it's more effective to play farther up when the ball moves. I know it's anecdotal data, but at least in my own case that's why I was playing too deep. I would bet that's true for a lot of guys like myself who aren't working with really experienced crews every night. Are some guys lazy? Of course. I know that ignorance is no excuse, because that stuff can easily be taught at camps but those are some thoughts I had on this from my own experience. I'm glad to see fed move that imaginary trail line farther into the front court so guys can get into better position when doing what is prescribed by the manual.
