HELP!!! 3-Man Mechanics

[NCAAREF]

I'm not trying to sound sarcastic, but I can't believe that an organization would put an official in that predicament. I officiate in NYS and no way is an official going out to do three man without some clinic or training beforehand. We use two person throughout the season but go to three person for Sectional semis and finals. The schools dictate that we only use officials that are trained in three person mechanics. If the officials that are chosen for the semis or finals are not trained in three person, we provide a clinic beforehand to at least give them the basics, similar to the questions you are asking. This job is tough enough without throwing someone out there who has never worked three person before.
