Next weekend I will be presenting a theory course for new referees. It is aimed at people with basic knowledge of the rules of basketball, but with no officiating experience. Some of them will be aged from 14, but the majority will be 17 - 21.

I have course material to present, but was wondering what tips/suggestions people here would make. For instance, what didn't you get told that would have helped you right from the start? What misconceptions did you have about refereeing when you started?

Any help would be great.

Cheers
