What I've learned this first year:
1. Practice your signals in front of a mirror or while being videotaped.
2. Get a Fox 40 whistle and practice blowing it.
3. Get your hand up EVERY time you blow the whistle (Surprisingly hard to remember).
4. Get good shoes -
5. Read the rule book especially Rule 4 definitions. Get the case book and Illustrated Rules as well.
6. Pick one or two things to work on every game.
7. Keep a game log on what went well/poorly, things to work on.
8. Slow Down

I think dsqrddgd909 covered it pretty well. That’s a good solid list to start off with. The only thing that I would add would be to watch and ref as much basketball as possible. Study the game.
Good luck and have fun!
