First time 3-man tonight
I'm working a freshman/jv DH tonight and using 3-man for the first time. Any advice?
I worked about a half in a varsity scrimmage at a camp and found that that I was more concerned with mechanics and where I should be and less concerned with calling the game. |

Don’t forget to referee the action! When I first started 3-man, I was so busy thinking about mechanics that I missed some very obvious calls. When you’re starting out with 3-man, missing the rotation is going to happen a few times. Your partners will understand and adjust. Like Snaq said,” Worry about mechanics and switches during dead balls.”

The strategy is great - they want to get officials ready for varsity as quickly as possible, and working 3-man makes for consistent and quality officiating without worry about switching back and forth when doing lower-level games. There is also some thought that full-schedule varsity level officials are much more likely to take a JV game now and then (actually quite often from what I've seen around here) when they can work 3-man... |

Saw the heading of this thread and before I read your post was going to say same thing..........get the calls right is foremost. Because of the expected anxiety you may have, take that extra second for a patient whistle, don't be in a hurry. I haven't read any other posts, so I maybe repeating much here. Relax and have fun! |

Games went well! All rotations seemed very easy and I was very comfortable with it by the middle of the second game. I never realized how small of an area you actually have to cover in 3-man.
Best part, instead of splitting the checks, the school paid us all the full amount ($90.00). ![]() |
