Information for Referees

Being a Referee builds self-esteem and self-confidence.
It's a great way to stay in shape.
It's fun.
You get to watch the game from the best seat in the house.
It improves your game by giving you an insight into what Referees are looking for and how they make decisions.
It prevents you, the parent/coach/player, from looking silly by yelling at a ref for no good reason.
It gives you more to talk about around the dinner table than "How was school?"
It's a great way to give back to the community.
You KNOW you can do a better job than THAT bozo!
We desperately need more adult Referees!
