This is a great time to sharpen your own tools
I have found that working with people makes me think a lot more. I have been working with a newer official this summer and we have both improved our game tremendously. We worked on keeping double whisles to a minimum. That was a good start as it blended into other important areas like mechanics and coverage area.
On the other hand, I have found that some more experienced officials sometimes give bad advice. Mechanics change, rules change, and sometimes they stay with what they have known for years.
We have some people with our chapter that do come to games and give excellant advice to all of us.
