1st Year Backjudge
Hey Guys,
I am going to be a first year backjudge on a Varsity Crew. I have read the manuals and so on but I know there is nothing better then persoanal experience. So what would your tips be for me. What are some to do's and not to do's. Let me have it!! |

You're going to have everyone tell you "don't get beat to the goal line". And that's true, but if not getting beat means you are running a footrace with the players and failing to do your number one job, officiate the game, then it doesn't really matter if you win the race or not. There are times you are going to get beat, but there is no excuse for ever failing to officiate.

Well, I thought I had a handle on being a back judge after working there last year, but after working a scrimmage last weekend under the watchful eye of experienced back judges, I felt like I knew nothing and have to start all over.

To continue with what everyone else is posting. I would add to never take a play off. At times you can get bored back there, but always focus on your keys and your zone. The time you relax is when you'll miss that "big" call.
