We’re officiating junkies here in the offices of Referee Enterprises. Several games have been watched and officiated by staff members over the course of the first couple months of the season. Here’s what’s being observed. . . .
Mechanics. High school games require high school mechanics. College games require college mechanics. It’s as simple as that. Remember that you are not above any game that you have accepted to work. Using college mechanics in a high school game displays arrogance whether you want to or not. Using high school mechanics in a college game is a good way to irritate your assigner. Know where you are and use the correct mechanics to avoid confusion. . . .
