I am a basketball referee myself so I know the basics but I would you guys be able to help me out.
I’m hoping you guys could answer these simple questions so I can learn more about what you have to handle in a higher level of refereeing or umpiring.
These answers will be greatly appreciated.
How do you normally feel while refereeing?

How would you describe referees treatment in your games? 100 word max.

In my experience soccer referees are generally treated with respect by the participants of the game. The real issue is a general lack of respect (and rules knowledge) among spectators.
