If you've been around for 15-20 years and all the coaches know you, appearance doesn't matter nearly as much....if at all. They made their judgement of you years ago. If you're going to camp, you're likely trying to move up....to levels where you'll encounter new coaches and new players. The clinician is teaching one of the facets of moving up. Quote:
They're trying to give the campers the tools to make a quality call. Quality calls will not come with reliability from the wrong positions. From the wrong position, it will often turn into a guess, rather than a quality call....with a much higher probability of being wrong (or at least a poor choice of calls). So, the first thing to do is get the official in the correct spot to be able to see the play. Only then can you tell if a poor quality call is from poor judgement or from being out of position.

My points were not so much targeted at you but at others who may read it who may have yet to experienced such a camp and may not understand what you understood. I meet many officials that think their ability to tell a block from a charge is all that matters.

This story reminds me of my camp experience from two summers ago. The camp was being held at LSUS and we were calling a 3 man game that got pretty out of hand. I called 2 obvious intentional fouls when the camp director takes it upon himself to blow a whistle and stop the game. He walked out onto the court and told me that I could not call any more fouls the rest of the game. I was already tired and aggravated we were in triple OT and he comes at me with this. I could not help but laugh in his face and continue calling MY game. He tried to get it where I could not call any more games for his camp but thankfully the Assignment Secretary took up for me. People these days, I tell you.
