3- Keys are based on the Strength of Formation
- Determined by the number of eligible receivers
outside the tackles at time of snap - Strong side has the greater number of eligible
receivers - weak side has the least
- If no strong side, strength is automatically to
the line judges side - Back judge keys on widest receiver on strong side
- Line judge and Linesman have the second key
- Do not key off same player as official ahead of
you in the priority. Normally, one wing official
keys off receiver on the side where the strength
is NOT declared. The other wing official will be
keying off strong side inside receiver.
