  1. OCEP PLAYOFF CERTIFICATION TRAINING BALL MECHANICS

  2. STYLES OF OFFENSES OFFICIATING CREWS ARE PRESENTED WITH A NUMBER OF STYLES OF OFFENSES THAT CAN PRESENT CHALLENGES TO HAVING THE BALL SPOTTED FOR THE NEXT PLAY.

  3. STYLES OF OFFENSES • REGULAR (THERE IS A HUDDLE) • NO HUDDLE • HURRY UP WHERE TIME IS A FACTOR (NEAR THE END OF A HALF) • HURRY UP WHERE TIME IS NOT A FACTOR (USED BY THE OFFENSE TO PUT THE DEFENSE AT A DISADVANTAGE)

  4. OFFICIATING ISSUES COMMON TO ALL THE NEED FOR THE CREW TO HAVE AWARENESS OF • GAME SITUATION • THE OLD AND NEW BALLS (WHERE ARE THEY?) • FIELD POSITION

  5. OFFICIATING ISSUES COMMON TO ALL THE NEED FOR THE CREW TO HAVE AWARENESS OF THE NEED FOR THE CREW TO HUSTLE, BUT MAINTAIN DEAD BALL/OFF BALL AWARENESS THE NEED FOR THE CREW TO COMMUNICATE THE STATUS OF THE OLD AND NEW BALL

  6. HAVING A ROUTINE READY FOR PLAY SEQUENCE USE A ROUTINE READY FOR PLAY SEQUENCE FOR ALL TYPES OF OFFENSES EXCEPT FOR A HURRY UP WHERE TIME IS AN ISSUE. THAT MEANS HAVING A CONSISTANT TEMPO FROM THE END OF A PLAY TO THE READY FOR PLAY

  7. SPOTTING THE BALL SOME TIPS: IF SPOTTING THE OLD BALL, AVOID “WALLS” THAT U, WINGS, R, AND B WON'T PASS. DO WHAT YOU NEED TO DO TO GET THE BALL SPOTTED INCLUDING TRIANGLES, TROTTING TO BALL AND SPOT. CUT DOWN DISTANCE ON TOSSES.

  8. SPOTTING THE BALL MORE TIPS: SOMETIMES THAT MEANS THE WING HAS TO HOLD THE SPOT A BIT LONGER IF SPOTTING A NEW BALL, CUT DOWN DISTANCE TO THE NEW BALL. (DON'T JUST STAND AND WAIT) DON'T GET THE OLD BALL IF A NEW ONE IS COMING – JUST WORRY ABOUT THE NEW ONE.
