Go ahead and quote me. I doubt I'll take up coaching any time soon. When my daughter played and I sat and criticized the refs, it led me into this endeavor here -- and a new level of humility. Reffing looked so easy, but woooo-hooo, it's not. Coaching has never looked easy, so I don't think I could even attempt to find out. I cannot imagine sitting on the sidelines watching kids do what they're not supposed to, and having no way to "fix" it. At least as a ref, I can retreat into "neutrality".
