I've been tagged with making a 15 minute presentation to our officials (baseball and softball, rookie to 25 year veterans) concerning PROFESSIONALISM.
I have a few ideas about:
personal appearance
promptness
rules knowledge
proper mechanics/positioning/hustle
communication/hand signals/voice
mutual respect
calm confidence, accept the emotional environment in which the game is played - expect excited responses
leadership
interaction with fans/crowd
I'm sure that will all fit in 15 minutes.
Give me some of your ideas of what you might talk about had you been tagged.
Thanks, Tony

Tony,
Everything mentioned should be projected
off the field, as well as on the field.
Loyalty/respect to partners and fellow sports officials can be a good trait to have in our pouch.
Have some fun with it.
