Smitty Single-Sided Long Neck Football Referee Throw Down Bean Bag
Make Every Call with Confidence. The Smitty Single Side Throw Down Bean Bag is a must-have accessory for football referees. Designed to to mark the exact spot where a significant play occurs on the field. It is generally used to accurately calculate penalty yardage, measure punt returns, or review turnovers without stopping the game for a foul.
Its unique design lays flat on the field and is easy to carry in your waist band or pocket. Durable construction ensures reliable performance game after game, making it an essential tool for youth, high school, collegiate, and adult league referees.
Referees primarily throw the bag to mark:
- Fumbles: The exact spot where a player loses control of the football.
- Punts and Kicks: The spot where a punt is caught or the specific area where the ball is first touched by the kicking team.
- Turnovers: The yard line where an interception or change of possession occurred.
- Momentum Exceptions: The spot where a defensive player intercepts or catches a ball near their own end zone and their momentum carries them backward, to properly award them the ball where the catch occurred.
This lightweight throw down bean bag helps improve mechanics and communication while keeping your focus on the game.
