I started officating in a local rec league, for 3 and 4 graders when I was 14 years old. Don't exactly remember the first game, but knew I was really nervous for the fact that I was asked to step in because the one official didn't show up. Went off find, I did it a few more times that year and had fun doing it. You know you find something when your a senior in high school and your job consist of working rec games and have a boss that has confidence in you to allow you to do a league where you are officiating your own peers from high school and other high schools in a rec league. It was a fun time and I learned a lot, and it has lead me to actually running their summer league and being in charge of getting officials and handling situations that come up within the league.
