I just finished a 3-whistle camp and my evaluators stressed DO NOT GUESS. On the real quick swing pass into your primary followed by a drive in which you are straight-lined it is better to have to tell the coach you didn't see it than to guess wrong. There will be times when the lead will not have time to rotate...stuff happens.

I know others who were at the camp post on this board, they may have been told something different.

As an aside, the title of the post reminds me of one of those "DUH" moments. My 3-whistle experience totals 7 games (all in camps). I was having trouble picking up the rotations given all the other things on my evaluations. One of the more experienced officials pointed out that if you are looking at the players backs from T, you missed a rotation and if you get to 2 on a 5-second closely guarded count at C you probably need to move. After I thought "DUH..how simple" I applied it in the last 3 games this weekend and only missed one rotation. Funny how hearing something worded differently can make such a difference.
