Unfortunately, that would be one of the technical things that seems to be lacking in SC refs. I was always told that you should always be facing the ball, otherwise you may get hit by it!! Especially on free kicks. I can't tell you how many times I have seen a team touch the ball on a corner then dribble in only to have the ref send them back because he wasn't paying attention. Just wish the refs were a bit more consistant. You can coach to consistancy whether it is bad or good.
