I am glad they went to NHFS refs from the local association, but nothing like throwing your entire referee staff under the bus before the season even starts!
I would have said something in meeting. My oldest son played in a little ragtag YMCA league. I would sit back and and just watch but then they were a few parents from our team who started riding the officials as the season went on. I spoke up.
