consistency, it is a very important issue in a game. not just the game but in the state, on a greater scale all states. as officials attend summer camps it is for many reasons.(in no particular order)
#1. you attend a camp to learn new info. and better ways to officiate the game. not to stay in the same rut yr after yr. dont go to camp and look at it as just a try out.
#2. upon learning new info you learn the same info as other officials and increases consistency among officials.
#3. at most camps clinicians offer feed back and even better game tape breakdown. it is important to watch game tape: to look at posture, positioning, primary, play calling, believability, and determining how athletic you look in the game. are you overweight? need to bulk up?
#4. be your own worst critic! when you miss a play admit it, and get it right the next time, dont make excuses for your self or you may never get better.

if all officials would watch just a few tapes a yr.(25%of your games) consistency would increase.

any comments or feedback, please respond with additons positive or neg.
