I officiated a game with an official last night who is a second year official in a 5-A Varsity Ball Game.
I do not understand how this happened even though I have talked to my division rep. and both told me that if a person is picked by a coach in their second year that they will be given the game.
I understand a coach having confidence in a person but this is ridiculous to me.
This person did not know mechanics,did not have the proper jacket,shoes were not shined and the pre-game talk with the captains included a discussion of the white line being out of bounds.
Would somebody please give me a honest answer because I truly believe that this procedure needs to be changed.
