My two cents...

A new Official needs to be on the floor as mucj as possible.
Even with running clocks, no shots etc, a new official can work on mechanics.
A foul means fist in the air, violation is hand. A travel call is a travel call is a travel call.

I even think new officials should work men's games, the guys are big, they are strong, You learn about positioning, you learn about off ball, and you learn alot about game management. You dont have to take the abuse.

New officials need to work summer ball. Experienced officials should work summer ball.

I had a summer game the other night (Varsity Boys) My partner was out of area, and made some questionable calls, and then did not handle the coaches well. These are the things you learn in summer ball.
