I have now worked about 20 games with my 14 year old Son. I get us some games in a Rec league and it's been alot of fun. He had a few months off and then recently went to a small camp like thingy for the HS aged officials. They had them work a scrimmage and I was amazed how much he'd improved without working some games. I've got about 25 more games already scheduled for us to work and he has the opportunity to pickup more. I want him to work some games without me so he can learn to not depend on me coming over and bailing him out. Also, it's tough to work when you know you gotta stretch your area. In last weeks game, I told him I was focusing on my area and he needed to do the same. IMO, he got what he needed and we heard no beef from the onlookers.

The neatest thing is he is able to earn way more that he could getting a pt job somewhere. He benefits from several lessons here.
