Thank you for that, I read up on Eargasms and they sound great. A pair is on the way so I will find out for myself next match.

Last tournament one of the other refs gave me a new pair of his Flent Quiet Please foam earplugs and they were great. Made it sound like my whistle was coming from somewhere else in the gym, not right in front of my face. I had been worried they might actually make it louder in the way that my own talking seems louder with earplugs in, but that was not the case at all.

I wish hearing protection had been part of the conversation when I started doing this a couple of years ago. I think earplugs of any sort should be part of the basic equipment set right in there with whistle, flags, cards, net chain, etc.
