In general, I would agree with what's been said here. But I've noticed an exception for myself this summer. I'm working a higher level of game than I've worked before, and I'm trying to learn to "let 'em play" a little. The biggest game I had last season was a varsity girls game that was so important that there was an article about it in the paper. There was an evaluator there, and he said I called it too tight, that girls at that level are allowed to bump more. Then I did a boys varsity spring league where I was really concentrating on letting more go, or holding the whistle, so that I could learn to call less. I'm not calling my summer games the same as I did last season, but I'm trying to call them the same as I will next season, and I'm trying to be consistent with how others at that level work.
