I am at the point in the season now where I spend about 6 weeks going back and forth 2 man, 3 man, 2 man, 3 man. In some cases working both ways in one day. What are some differences people have trouble in making the transition?

i have the most difficulty with counts. c/t 5-second counts. i also find myself counting sometimes in transition when i'm the c.

It's kinda like riding a bike.
 

ripcord51,
What's troubling you?

I have difficulty at Lead, remembering that I have additional area to cover beyond the 3 point arc.

Well Saturday I signaled the 3 as lead in a three man game. I watch the ball too much as lead in 3 man.

ripcord51,
Yeah, that can happen; but it can happen in a two-whistle game, too, where, for example, the 3-point try is above the line and the Lead throws up a marker.

One of the good results of switching from 2 to 3 to 2 is that the awareness of mechanics could be elevated through the need for forced pre-game concentration on the differences. You may find that increased focus can also occur when going from high school games to CCA games where the variations are subtle yet distinct.

Stepping into games with varying mechanics can be an entertaining and challenging diversion from what may become the mundane. :)

Wow mick, did you really write that?

Being reading the dictionary before hitting the hay, I see. :p

U'bad!
Dictionary dudn't have enough pictures.

That's the biggest adjustment for me, too.

I don't do a lot of 3 man during the season but last summer when I called some 3 man I was making a lot of calls beyond the three point line as L. I kept trying to run to the C position instead of the T after calling my fouls. On the plus side. When you are doing a lot of rotating as the L in 3 person, when you go to two, it is natural to work strong side. Just remember the rubber band that brings you to the oppisite side of the floor from the T.
