Along those lines, I will be doing my first "clinic" a week from Friday. Should be interesting and similar to a camp. It's part of a high school girls team camp and we will work games and be evaluated. I'm pretty excited since I missed a camp opportunity earlier this summer due to vacation.
The only experience I've had was doing church league games (of which I was also the director) this past winter with a couple experienced referees. It was helpful but I'm sure nothing like "real" games where mechanics and positioning are much more important.
I am poring through the rules, manuals, case books as well but nothing like real world experience.
Besides important aspects like being relaxed and being firm/confident any ideas like a list Top 5 rookie mistakes regarding calls/mechanics on the court?
Thanks
