Well I have done my share of one man here in Utah, and for the most part enjoy them more that others.
I have start many a game one-man and have got a half or more and another official shows up, if they are assigned to the game I let them come in and help finish. If they are just early for the next game I say I got it covered. I have learned that once you start one man and goto two man, the games whole complextion changes, in fact my partner and I on Wednesday were talking about the very subject. I love saying I didn't see that one, regardless of what I may have missed. I do the best I can and coaches appreaciate it. I also like saying who did the ball go OB on, when I am opposite the table and have no clue, if they can't conclude, I quickly go to alternating postion. The next time they always have a player. Way to go BC7, give me a call if you ever have something like that happen again,or call Greg.

The funny thing is I worked another game by myself today. I did two HS age Rec league games, and the first one I did by myself, the 2nd one I had a high school kid who had done some of the 7th grade games earlier in the day help me. I talked to my partner from a Sophomore game last night, and he told me that if that situation ever came up again to give him a call and see if he is available because he'd love to help. agra8zebra- do you only do Varsity games, or do you sometimes do lower level games? |

I do it all, where ever they send me, Rec Games are hard for me to deal with, mentality of Rec coaches, but I do them and give out my share of T's.
If you need some help let me know, I am not above anything.

Flying Solo
I have done numerous games solo, some planned, some not so planned the games run the spectrum of high school sophomore boys to men's rec league, to 1st and 2nd graders.
If I'm working solo I make sure I have a brief coaches/captain meeting before we start, talk about sportsmanship, talk about OOB on tableside, talk to them about I will do the best I possibly can; I tell them I'm working opposite the table, so we won't be seeing the same thiing, so they can relax and coach. In fact in one game, a fairly hot rivalry, partner didn't get message game was moved up two hours, I did boys soph game solo. We had security guards on both endlines, so I enlisted their help on calling OOB on the end line, and gave the table side OOB to the two coaches, any dispute, PA. Game went really well got complimented by AD, and in fact he processed payment way faster than the regular pay schedule. Working solo by far is not a license to take it easy, if you don't want to be lunchmeat for the coaches, you got to work harder. |
