Handy Guide for the Timer?

[Freddy]

It is the ideal that all athletic directors adequately prepare those running the clock. Especially in the junior high ranks, that is admittedly an ideal. Occasionally the one doing the clock and scoreboard is a student who got napped for the task after school.

I know this is the responsibility of the administration, but it would be great, as an official, to be able to ensure the knowledge of proper timer practices before the game starts on the lower levels.

It would be handy to have a little card with the most basic things the timer needs to do right. When needed, this might be easier than giving a rushed-through tutorial before the game starts.

Seems to me that something like this might already be available through some of your associations.

Anybody got anything like that you'd be willing to share?
