TwoMan

I have to instruct a two-man mechanics meeting in a couple of weeks. Do any of you know where to find any good materials that I could use. I haven't done much 2-man lately and am a little rusty.

Thanks

Well, just to start out with, I suggest you call it two- person or two-whistle. It's not a matter of PC. It's just basic respect for all officials everywhere. I won't say another word about it.

You can Google "basketball two person mechanics presentations" or other variations of this and get a few presentations. However, the primaries shown may not be what your area teaches, etc.

btw, since we're discussing empathy, here's an empathy test:

If you believe this is funny then you pass. If you believe driving 25 miles was a waste of time and gas then you fail.

I thought it was funny. And I also thought 25 miles was a huge waste. So do I get a re-take or something?

And, btw, 25 miles? Since when do Brits use miles?

I feel your pain, but no retest for you.

Now go away.

Okay, but not far. When the empathy kicks back in, I'm so ready to just nag and whine at everyone about PC, and so on.
