Out of curiousity...how did you know that this was the particular game in question? Just wondering. I am very pleased with officiating in this league and particularly impressed when officials, as they often do, take time to explain rules etc.. to players during the game. That helps them learn more than almost anything else and teaches them to play better. Now if I can only learn the game as well as the FBVA officials. To all officials in youth leagues who may read this please know your efforts are not unnoticed and are appreciated by coaches and players alike. Thanks again to all who replied...

I have worked both Southside and Westside FBVA. I haven't worked any games for them since the High School season started though, so I wouldn't know about the particular game you are mentioning. I just put 2 and 2 together (Your name and that you mentioned Fl HS refs working a 11-12 game). Most of the officials are pretty good, at least the ones I have worked with. I have seen some very competitive games, some really good teams and the coaches are usually knowledgeable. This is certainly more than rec ball!
