I ran touch yesterday for the Nomads vs Scottish pre season friendly. I've run touch before but never as a qualified ref and it really is different. Basically an unqualified TJ just indicates when the ball goes into touch while a qualified one is also assisting the ref with timekeeping, watching for 'off the ball' incidents etc. Fortunately there wasn't any silliness going on so I didn't have to do anything but it certainly is counter intuitive to not be watching the ball quite a lot of the time.

Bottom line, I had fun.
