I wrote to bpowlen to apologize for inadvertently deleting her post.
[I had answered with one-whistle basketball mechanics, and then proceeded to screw up some more.]

Please give her some solo mechanics help.
You folks could write a book !
Thanks.

During pre-game, I usually tell the coaches and captains that I will do the best I can but I am solo today. Most of the coaches understand. Make sure you have your lineup card and have the teams or the correct side of your lineup card or it will make for a long match. I suggest that you make sure to watch the net for any flaggerant violations and then do the best you can on the lines. Make the best call you can on the lines. If you are 100% sure you don't know, do a replay. If you are pretty sure you know if it was in or out, make the call. Otherwise you will be there all night doing replays because you will not be able to see the net and the lines all the time.

Good luck!!!
