Suggestion on 3 Second violation

[w_sohl]

If you have proper positioning you should be able to see the lane at all times from the lead in you perifial(sp?) vision. A good rule of thumb is if the player looks as if they are going to leave the lane but wont make it before you get to three, see if they exit before you call it. If they leave don't blow it, ruins the flow of the game and three is the least of your worries. I have had several games this year where I haven't called a single three second violation. 34 games this year so far and maybe called 3-4 times.
