Pilot ref:
Keep in mind, it's getting towards the end of the season, and it is likely you may be mentally/physically drained. So, rest as much as possible, eat the right foods, and liquids. Also, I've noticed that individuals are stressed, since Sept. 11th, and the economy is suffering, and a lot of those yellers in the crowd are laid off with no jobs.
It takes a special person to officiate, and sounds like to me you are a class act. Consistently, present yourself professionaly and don't allow any of these lunatics influence your concentration. If certain individuals in the crowd get too rowdy and are a possible threat to the contest, have the administration dismiss them from the game. If coaches are out of line, "t" them. There is no room for this type of behavior and should not be tolerated.
You are there to enhance the educational values for the kids on and off the court. Take care of business!
