Working L.A. Jordan football games this fall is going to be challenging for officials because the Bulldogs have put together an offense that will be throwing multiple passes, using receivers that aren’t normally eligible and doing just about anything and everything to confuse people.

‘It was very bizarre,’ Gardena Serra Coach Scott Altenberg said of Jordan’s offense earlier this week in a passing competition. ‘You didn’t know who their quarterback was.’

Coach Elijah Asante calls his offense ATW -- Attack The Weakness. His top player is quarterback-receiver-running back De’Shawn Beck.

There’s going to be double and triple passes, balls bouncing on the ground behind the line of scrimmage and multiple quarterbacks. Asante is just hoping the officials know the rules before the game so his team doesn’t get penalized on legal plays.

Jordan opens the season against Los Angeles Locke and has nonleague games against Anaheim Esperanza, Ventura St. Bonaventure and Santa Ana Mater Dei.
