I've been doing this since I started. I keep track of every game for financial purposes etc..... I also make notes for most games about different situations.
I make notes about:
- reminding myself about my weak areas (ex: missing calls in the first
possession of the game)
- coaches and what works with some as oppose to others
- calls that I wish I could take back
- tough situations that could have been avoided by a better pre-game
- partners and what to work on for next time I work with them
- the list can be endless
I find it nice to go back and review notes from a couple of years ago. Some of these learning experiences are quickly refreshed because they are on paper.
As far as goals are concerned, I never actually wrote them down but that sounds like a good idea.
I started officiating 6 years ago. I gave myself three goals to be achieved by Year 5. I got two out of three. Still working on Number 3.
Now I've come up with a couple of new goals for the next two to three years.
