I am going to do some youth games on weekends in our catholic league this year to get a few more games and I think it will be a good learning experince to do other ages. For the first weekend I am working with a brand new ref, these will be his first ever games. My questions are:
1-What is best, to give him a lot of information in a postive way after the game or keep it simple with a few major items. I can see good points in doing it either way.
2-Is it good for the coaches to know you have a new partner and work with you to develop him (I don't thnk so myself)? Should I keep the coaches off of his back or keep the reins on the coaches tighter than I normally would with an experinced partner?
3-Any thing else I can do to make it a good experience?
I have not worked with a lot of new refs, am not sure what to expect with the youth and want to do a good job of making this a good experience for my partner.
Thanks for any ideas or thoughts.....oh and I hope everyone has a wonderful Thaksgiving!
