Thumbs up

Well the course went pretty well. We focused on four main areas:
- Game Administration
- Communication
- Violations
- Fouls

It was a small class (10 people) and thankfully all had played basketball for several years. So at least they had a rough knowledge of the rules and concepts of refereeing.

I'll keep you posted as to how they go. Next week they will all be refereeing between 1/2 and a whole game with me to get some practical experience and tips. Will be interesting to see how it goes.

Thanks heaps for everyone's advice - it was greatly appreciated and really game in handy.
