Cover your violations! Like carrying
We cannot stress it enough. Even in times of COVID19 ;-): Cover your violations!! Players and coaches will focus on themselves instead of on us as referees.

Check the clip below and think what would happen if you’d let go the carrying and call the foul. What would it do to the atmosphere in the game? Lees verder “Cover your violations! Like carrying”

Flopping clips
The main point of watching a lot of clips, by example the clips on our site, but not limited to that only 😉 is to recognize situations, understand them and being able to make the best call possible in your own games. There’s lots of information to be found online, both clips and in writing and I’m sure everybody has heard some refereecoaches talk about how to recognize a flop.
The collection of flops from NBA in the clip we found is hilarious sometimes, but a nice way to check if you can explain why you call the foul. As we always say: If you can not explain your decision, don’t call it! And yes, there are ways to train yourself in explaining your calls. Lees verder “Flopping clips”

We can not get enough of the eternal discussion: Block Charge Flop?

Or is the defensive players reaction in the clip from Sam Subby legit?? Perhaps there are even people who would call a blocking foul. Share your opinion with us and tell us why you pick that option. Cause: If you can’t explain it, don’t call it!
