WATCHING THE PLAY
JUDGE THE CONTACT
WATCH THESE R1s
BALL HANDLING
Case Book Guidelines:• Only valid criterion for judgment is vision• Did the contact result in catch, throw, or
prolonged contact (like rolling)• “Using an underhand, palms-open technique
does not always result in an illegal hit”• “A ball which spins off the first pad of the
fingers or is merely deflected is probably legal”
BALL HANDLING
BALL HANDLING
• Avoid “automatic” calls
• Zero in on contact of ball
• Watch hands, not flight of ball
• Give benefit of doubt to the player
VERBAL COMMUNICATION• Partner
– Collaborate with your partner about situations; pre-match and during play.
• Coach– All verbal communication should go through the
captain (even if it’s loud enough for coach to hear)• Captain
– Use the verbiage of the rules. – Do not get into lengthy discussions where the
captain runs back and forth across the floor to relay messages to the coach. Once is all.
• Partner– Frequent eye contact between officials during
the match; dead balls and transitions– Hand Signals (and “discrete” signals)
• Routines & habits (practice the right way)– “In times of crisis, we go back to ‘learned’ behavior.” – Develop personal routines
• R1 scan before beckon • R2 managing tables and benches during dead balls
• When it comes to coaches, this is the only method of direct communication available.
NONVERBAL COMMUNICATION
• Verbal warning – tweet whistle
