Three man crews

[bsilliman]

One point with which I must agree with the writer: too many officials do run down the court with their back turned to the action.
This may come from the idea that "you should never get beat in 3-person."
Always run looking back over your shoulder and never try to beat the players running down the floor. Very few officials are that 'fleet of foot'. If you are beat get to the best position possible to see the initial play and then move to the 'regular' position.
