1. Leagues that use Refs without training often have trouble with Safety. There is a League in town that uses HS kids. The Youth Games get too rough in my opinion for young children with untrained HS kids reffing.


Now this isant fair JCrow I am a highschool ref and work with them. I have been told by most of the adult patched guys that i work with that I am a good ref and they tell me to persue higher levels. The league I work in does train us tho. Every ref goes thru a 4 hour rules course, and all work with experienced guys until they prove they can handle themselves. It is okay to use highschool guys I believe by me reffing now I am gonna be that much better by the time I am in college and go searching for JV games and hopefully Varsity games
