I agree very much with cowbyfan1. Don't only attend those games but try to make the pre-game as well. If your organization looks for chain crews sign up early and often for those assignments. You get a front-row seat of the action and a ground-level view of what the officials see and how they call the game. As a rook I stood behind one of our organizations best Linesman. I didn't even work the chains. The referee asked me if I was a cadet and said work the clip if I wanted to. More than likely you'll be brought in as a wing any way and there's no other way to get acclimated (other than actually working) than being right there on top of the action.
