I am putting together a program for new officials at our upcoming Assocaition meeting. I would like to get ideas from this board. Looking for those pearls of wisdom that have been handed down to you from veteran officials, that have made you a better official. Not the stuff in the book. I'm looking for those little things that set the top officials apart from the rest. Things like game preparation, communicating with coaches, players and other refs, what it takes to be the best, that sort of thing. Thanks for your help!
