My regular season is over and I've taken some lower level weekend tournaments just for fun and a little extra cash. I was wonder what other officials thought of these tournaments. The more I work them, the more I see it being all about WINNING and I don't see players enjoying themselves. Instead of learning to have fun competing, they have parents and coaches screaming and yelling at every mistake. I understand that competition is part of life, and I love to compete, but I see these tournaments as a starting point for alot of the poor sportsmanship we see at other levels. Any thoughts?
