I have been told that when working the umpire position, I need to wear 2 down indicator bands.
Can anyone please tell me how to use the second one?

One for monitoring the down, the other for monitoring position of ball on the field from hash mark to hash mark.

The scheme you come up with is really up to you. What I do is if ball is on left hash mark I put indicator on left index finger, on left goal post, on left two fingers, center of field is middle two fingers, etc.
