Very dangerous and shows you're a rookie. We have one guy here that keeps doing it, and I am on him everytime about breaking the habit. He's a friend of mine and I keep telling him that he could get seriously hurt!

Not to beat the dying horse, but turning around and running forward while looking back over your shoulder also looks more athletic. Like you belong out there.

Having said that, in soccer, we're expected to backtrack some, especially toward a touchline as the ball approaches us. Come to think of it, backtracking is part of our physical test (shuffle test: 25 yards straight ahead, then to the left, then backwards, then to the right). So riddle me this: Why is backtracking expected in one sport, but verboten in another? |

Glad I wasn't back pedaling on this one...
Several years ago I was running down court as new lead, I am looking back over my shoulder and about 3' inside the sideline. Suddenly I collide with someone and we both go tumbling to the floor. For whatever reason a coach was out on the floor and looking away from the play...
I blow whistle and then spit it out of my mouth on the way down (to protect my teeth ![]() We were both okay and actually had a great laugh about it. Never did find out why he was that far out there but he was very apologetic realizing that someone could have really been hurt. Easiest call I've ever made and only time making a call from a seated position. |

And tend to be staring at the ball in the backcourt while there are 6 players running by him in the frontcourt.
