I had this same coversation with myself a couple of years ago regarding soccer (23 years worth). It got to the point that I "dreaded" going out to do a game...got tired of the rain and cold...and it just wasn't fun anymore. I had always told my wife that I would hang it up when it wasn't fun. I decided to take a year off and see how much I missed it. My wife later asked my how many games I had gone to watch and I realized that I had not seen a single game in over a year, so I know I made the right decision. I still love to officiate basketball, so I don't see that decision coming anytime soon. I am 58 and can still get up and down the court, but I am not too disappointed when I get my schedule and it shows more girls varsity games than boys varsity. I really don't mind the girls varsity games at all and the $$$ is the same. I just like officiating basketball.
