In the next few weeks, I will post a mini-series of training basics for rookie officials or anyone who may need a refresher. This can be used in conjunction with any outdoor mechanics training by your local association as part of a weekly preseason checklist. This first series will be mainly focused on 4 and 5 man mechanics as that is usually the first on field action brand new officials will see.

Week 1 will cover the basics. This includes identifying keys as well as basic signals. Click the image or link below to access the entire Powerpoint Presentation:
