Had a first Friday night since the rule that there must be 4 on each side of the ball during a free kick.
My crew and I always try to have a great pregame Evey week, it something we do every Friday night since we became a crew 5 years ago.
Last Friday night K lines up for a free kick and everything is normal. 6 to the right of the ball and 4 to the left of the ball and kicker.
BJ give his normal instructions and runs off to get ion position both K, and R are counted we verify this both visually and over the O2O.
Just as I am getting ready to blow RFP my spidey senses goes off that something not going to be right about this free kick. Quick scan everything is normal.
RFP sounded and the free kick started right before the kicker kicks the ball the player closest to the kicker on his left sprints behind the kicker making 7 players to the right and 3 to the left when the ball is kicked.
I shut it down administer the penalty and we rekick.
Coach is not happy with his player knowing he committed this fou,l and of course fans are not happy with us.
Like I sad earlier it was the first time we have called that foul since the rule was put into place, and its something I mention is every pregame.
I am just curious what other obscure rarely scene actions that other crews mention during their pregames
