Studying helps alot however it can not replace experience. Try to officiate as many games as you can. Rec league, youth league, etc. The level might not be what you want to do (varsity or higher) however many things will happen that you have never seen before! Something will come up that will make you think will what if this happened and you will be better off because of it. Just make sure you go into each game trying to work on something new (postioning, signals, etc.) Don't let your mechanics slack off during rec games because they will follow you into bigger games.

Also if you are serious about it then you should try and do it year round so that you don't forget rules, mechanics, everything .

Good luck in the future.
