I have the chance to work a summer league for one of the Varisity coaches in the area. He schedules the games and the officials. Hopefully a good summer will lead him to call the assignor for the area and put in a good word for me. You can bet I'll be trying to follow all of the NFHS mechanics. Anything that can get me a leg up sounds like a pretty good idea.

I don't need to show anything to coaches or assignors around here. They all know me from experience.
However, I still use the summer to improve. I work on mechanics, positioning, communication....everything I can think of. When I get to state, I need every advantage I can get to compete against our state's best.
Doing everything right, even in the off months will not hurt you. If you have practiced perfection until it has become a habit, then your mechanics (and other facets) won't fall to pieces when the heat gets turned up.
