Does anyone have or know of an education program within their association/area aimed to at reducing the instances of umpire/referee abuse in sport?
I would be interested in hearing about trategies/techniques in use and the success (or otherwise) of such programs.
As we all probably know real abuse (as opposed to the old fashion "Hey Blue, I've seen potatoes with better eyes!" style comedy relief ) is luckily a rare occurence but becoming more common and seemingly 'acceptable' to certian elements within today's society all arounf the world.
I am interested in implementing some sort of preventative scheme in the coming season, so any assitance/advice will be greatly appreciated.
