Ever have a hard time with OOB calls?

If you know for sure it went off Blue, but are a little confused about the direction, just put your hand up to stop the clock and yell "White". Look over at the benches, figure out if it's the first or second half, and then give the direction.

In a half court set, if all you know for sure is that it went off the offensive team, but are a little confused about which color is the defensive team, just put your hand up to stop the clock and point downcourt. Look over at the benches, figure out if it's the first or second half, and then give the proper color.

Look over at the benches, figure out if it's the first or second half, and then give the proper color.

In the last two cases, you may want to yell, "That way", or, "Stay here", but many evaluators may discourage this, and so, "When in Rome ...".

I have no problem with color, I'll goof direction occasionally. I have a frequent partner who always points direction rather than call color first. If you call right color, the sheep will follow, then I can properly point. To me if you point wrong direction first, you are open to discussion.

I think my biggest problem, as lead, is when I get too close to the endline. I need to back off the endline farther. In doing so, I get a clearer picture. When I am really close to the play, I can't see the quick tip or which foot the ball hit last. So, mechanically, I can help myself make better judgments.

BillyMac,
You disappointed me. I thought that you would certainly recommend a coin toss.
