Tough Spot in 2-Man

[Back In The Saddle]

This is part of my regular two-person pre-game for both tough spots (sideline above FTLE and end line beyond the far lane line). Depending on how my partner feels about it, the lead will either whistle, signal stop clock and say, "Help!," or whistle, signal stop clock and give the official deer in the headlights stare. Either way, trail should already be expecting to help with this call and will respond by giving a clear direction signal, which the lead will mirror. And, on the rare occasion when the lead is so preoccupied with play in his area that he doesn't see the ball go OOB, the trail will simply whistle it and make the call.
