All this advice sounds great. 7 years! Why haven't you already gone. Don't lack confidence. If you feel its time to go, then go. You could try some fail safe camps. By that I mean camps that are still teaching camps such as Roger Ayers and Mike Eades' Referee choice camp. I know they have one assignor there for sure cause I got picked up by him (DII), but I think there are more, plus it is an instructional camp. So if anything you learn plus you have a shot of getting picked up. There other big time camps you are spending a lot of money to tryout, and I'm not saying that's bad. If it were me, I would take the big time camp, but at the same time I have alot of confidence in my abilities as an official, and you better have a whole hell of alot too if you want to make it in.
Also don't forget that the first impression is usually a lasting impression at the big time camps. If you go they expect you to know your stuff and to be good at your craft.
Do you think your ready?
