Here in Ontario, the number of female officials is increasing. Often in girls' provincial tournaments, you find medal games officiated by a crew of all women.

I don't see working with females any differently than with males. If there is anything I would say, is that they have a tougher time of keeping up with the play in two-person mechanics in higher-level games. But then again I might be a tough judge because I train on my cardio at the gym.
