Soccer is by far the easiest to officiate based on rules & mechanics. It is most difficult because the culture & philosopy of officiating has been transposed from other countries. Americans trying to latch on are challenged. Regretably, soccer-specific referees are defensive when officials from another sport jopin up. Don't ever tell them you officiate another sport or you'll be ostracised. Good luck, Pat O'Reilly
