Pet Peeve ...

How would a rookie, or inexperienced official, who has diligently read the rule book, case book, and manual, know about a Point of Emphasis from 2003-04 or 2005-06? Same question about annual interpretations that never make it into the case book.

I know that camps, and clinics, would expose new or inexperienced, officials to such situations, but not all officials take officiating as seriously as others. Some are just content to have a good understanding of rules, and mechanics, and do a good job when they work their CYO and AAU games.
