[26 Year Gap]

I would think that ice hockey is the most demanding of all sports to officiate. Skating is one thing. Skating backwards WITH PROFICIENCY is quite another. In most areas ice hockey and basketball seasons are run concurrently, so it would be very difficult to officiate both of them. Soccer occurs here during basketball season. So, in considering another sport, I will likely go with volleyball. I played soccer and it would be easier to pick up the rule set for me, but I cannot do two sports in the same season.
