After reading through these posts, i've got a few more points to add to my last post.

-All of my T's have been justified, a few have been about the negative reactions of coaches to my calls, in particular there was an instance with a disconcertion call, and another one with a player control foul.

I've had one assistant coach ask me why I didn't make a call in my partner's area, i resonded, i was watching my area for off ball contact, etc, and he resonded, well you should be watching the game. Easy T there, wouldn't you think.

As I said most of them came from rec leagues, and middle school leagues, usually where a parent just volunteered for the coaching job. I haven't set foot on a high school court yet, because i'm still in high school. But when i do, i know i have to change the way I handle the coaches.

My assignor seems to like the job i do, because i am constantly getting a very good selection of games. (At least i hope its because i do a good job, not because he can't find anyone else to do them ) I've attended camps, I'm going to attend a couple more this summer.

Officiating is something that is important to me, and i always try to be the best official i can be in the hopes of advancing up through high school to college and university ball.
