Umpires:
When a two-minute offense is run at the end of each half, you are responsible for ball retrieval from sideline to sideline.
If the ball is dead in the side zone, hustle to retrieve the ball and have the opposite short wing mirror the spot.
Spot the ball using the opposite wing’s spot and get back into position.
Preserving time is critical, not inches.
