Explosive movement

Sometimes even when we make a correct decision, players (and coaches, parents, and spectators) disagree. But if we are close to the incident, we can better “sell” our decisions.

Below, you see an example of a referee using his explosive movement and sprint speed in a very smart way so that he was very close to the next phase of play. When he calls offside, he was very close to the ball and nobody questioned his or his AR’s decision.

As soon as you recognize that you might be away from the play, increase your speed. Use your explosive movement and sprint to stay close to play.
