First Varsity Game

[mcrowder]

Have a good talk with the R in pregame about what he expects of you BEFORE the game. I'm sure that once the game gets going and the nerves get normal, you'll fall back on instinct, and be fine. But a V game is much different than anything you've done previously in the way it's handled PRE-game. Also make sure you know what you're expected to write down. Some crews have each official track his own penalties. Some have everyone track everyone's penalties. You've probably done neither at SubV.

Other than that - once you get on the field, let your secure knowledge that you were picked to fill in for a reason calm your nerves. I'm sure that you know what you're doing on the field - trust yourself.
