I agree with you that it's never too early to attend any camp, as long as you go to learn & improve. You're not improving if they make you use mechanics that are not appropriate to your level.


I disagree with your premise here. Mechanics is not the only thing in officiating. Very important to be sure, but not everything. To say that one is not improving if one uses mechanics not appropriate to one's level is blatantly wrong.

Off the soapbox...
Ah, come on. Are you tellng me that a first year guy is
comfortable enough with the rules & NF mechanics
that he should be learning "advanced mechanics"?
I don't believe that & I'm sure that you don't either.
I also disagree strongly with the rest of your post but
life is too short.
