The Ref Stop

Echo

I don't believe we have discussed this before. I often referee on fieds that have one or more sides with solid structures that can echo sounds. A ball is kicked and an opponent attempts to block it from very close distance, and the ball goes out of play. For various reasons it is difficult to determine who touched the ball last visually and I rely on sound and use my built in snicko. I keep second guessing myself if the second sound was an echo or the opponent also touched the ball. Does anyone else have this issue?

As a deaf in one ear and can't hear in the other ear very well referee I rely almost entirely on visuals, so I also don't have this problem, lem, lem, lem, em, em, m, m
