We take a test here every year and I think that is good.
Why
As 1 poster said as you get older you tend to keep some older concepts and this can apply to rules.
Now I agree that being a rule wizard is not the only attribute that a good referee should have.
You also need
a.that court presence.
b.a sense of humour.
c.good people skills
d.fitness
e.excellent mechanics
and probably a few more
However if your rule knowledge is limited and that unusual event occurs right at a crucial part of your best game ever and you do not know the correct answer then it becomes your worst game because that is all anyone will remember about your performance
