first t

I spent alot of time in front of the mirror practicing my mechanics and prior to each season I do ti all over again to refresh myself. My biggest porblem early on was that i though I had my arm raised up high only to see I was still not as high as it should be. Took me a while to get it down but now when the whistle blows, my arm goes up high. The other thing I had to work on was the bird dogging on fouls. What I mean is so that my pointer arm doesn't go out as soon as my other arm goes up. Now I blow the whistle, raise the arm, pause and then point, pause again and then show the push or hack or whatever the foul is. I have found this is cleaner and creates less confusion for my partner and the players/coach, etc
