A tip to bounce the ball right

make sure to bounce the ball at shin height when in oppostion, this will make it very to tackle you, as they must reach down very low, when moving fast however, bounce the ball at stomach height, and push forwardes to run into the ball, bouncing again, it is also easier like this as it more natural to run with open legs, not crouching

Swimming

The ref is control of three officials

The ref has to make sure all the watches of all the officials are in time

The ref has to make sure that all of the officials are in the correct places for the race, so they can judge accurately.

The ref has to make sure that the swimmers all dive in on the whistle blow, and not before, if the swimmer does this, there will be a 10 second penalty.

The ref must make sure to instruct the officials to the right places, as well as informing them of any changes or special features that must be done.

The ref can stop the game at any point to see to that all of the FINA rules are followed.

The ref has the power to take officials away if they are deemed to be not good enough for duty, and may replace them, the ref can also add extra officials if necessary.

The ref has the power to disqualify swimmers if they are disobeying the rules or cheating.

Gymnastics

The ref must make sure the routine is safe by judging past vaults, only then can a gymnast attempt a vault.

The ref cannot help the gymnast in deciding which move to do, the gymnasts must do this themselves.

The ref has to make sure that the apparatus is safe to use and is not broken or not good enough.

The ref must make sure that the judges make fair results, so say if they did a double backflip handspring while spinning in the air, then be awarded a 3 by one judge and 8 and 7 by the others, it would be unfair, as it is clearly well done.

The ref must make sure the gymnast uses each piece of apparatus only once.

The ref is not allowed to influence the judge’s decision in any way at all, even by one point, only point out if they are being unfair.

The ref is not allowed to interfere in the vault after the run, but can stop the vault in the run.

The ref is not allowed to leave the hall until the vault is over, so he will always be there to keep it safe, you are not allowed to vault unless there is a ref watching.
