Things from camp

[Joe McCain]

Hello Folks, I'd delighted to have been introduced to this forum, and welcome your feedback. Although I've been offciciating awhile, this is my first introduction to this exchange. I've been impressed with some of the threads I've followed in familiarizing myself with this site.

It is interesting to see this mechanic John Clougherty is considering being discussed. In reality, the need for this mechanic can often be avoided if the Trail will release at a forty-five degree angle relative to the end line, thus escaping the traffic jam, and assume normal (new lead) coverage. In those cases when this release technique still results in the Trail becomeing enmeshed in the transition play, changing positions and having the C become the new Lead instead simply means that the former C get on his (or perhaps her) wheels and get in front of the play to officiate effectively.

In my opinion, it means that it isn't very complicated, merely that we have to be attentive and do the hussle ... which is what we are paid to do.
