really is to work more. There will come a time in your career that you will just realize you have been around the block doing this, and you will naturally feel more confrontable or relax. Outside of that, maybe you can do some visualization or pregame technics that might get you ready mentally for the game. Whatever that might be or whatever might work is based on you, but find something that might help until officiating becomes like riding a bike. Trying to slow down can help, but that comes with time just like other skills you get on the court. It could have been the situation that stressed you out by being evaluated, so maybe this is not normal for you and that is why you were uptight. You could go to more camps to help get used to that. I personally go to about 5 or 6 camps every summer. I was nerveous at first, but know I just treat it like anything else.

Hope that helps some. Good luck in the future.

Peace
