did I do this right?

"s a 2nd year official and needed a lot of help."

Had you worked with him before or basing the need for help off of what you've heard? If this official got a Varsity game, chances are someone thought he earned it, and was capable of working it.

I'm a 3rd year official. My parnters turned the R duties over to me, and they have both been officiating about as long or longer than I have been alive. I was very much STFU even though I was the R. R don't mean mud once that ball goes in the air as far as play selection goes.

Another thing, let him live and die with it. All you can do is remind him of the rule, and let him make up his mind. I've learened my lesson about technicals, only way to do that was to have actually did it myself.
