Since everyone is on the fence, let me give you the correct answer (at least my version). Court presence is more important than rules knowledge. I know you asked about game management but I changed it to court presence the two are related.
Keep in mind that I have always stressed knowing the rules. I always make high marks on my association's exam. But the bottom line is that rules knowledge by itself will not let you get you through a high intensity Varsity or College game. It is common knowledge that Tim Higgins is not a rules guru, but is there anyone better at dealing with coaches, players and the pressure of a big game?
