Beginner questions

I think what I'm going to say applies mostly to recognizing travels (which some might argue is one of the most difficult things to do), it really applies to every part of officiating.

As you work more games and get more reps, the game will slow down and you'll know exactly what it is you're looking for.

I don't know if it's this way in Australia, but in the states it seems like everybody wants to play at a million miles (or kilometers) per hour. There's no rule that says officials have to officiate at that speed. Don't get caught up in that. Take your time. It's better to have a late (read: patient) whistle than to have a whistle and regret it.
