Get you hands on the state tests for the last couple of years, sit down and answer every question. If you're not 100% positive on the answer, then look it up. This will really help you get into the rules.

In the beginning, find out where you can ref rec level games with qualified knowledgable refs. Don't get hooked up with career rec refs because they will give you bad habits that you'll have to break. Once you have a place to do this, get some games under your belt.

If you can go to at least 1 summer referee camp, that will really accelerate your learning curve. There should be camps for HS ball that will really benefit you. Maybe wait to go to the College camps because you don't want to get in over your head and get discouraged.

Where are you from? There may be someone here on the forum who can help.
