This is how I started out, I was not a High Schooler, but in my mid 20s.
I was Coaching JV Girl's Basketball, and a buddy of mine talked me into it. I had refereed Soccer and Umpired Baseball before so it was natural. It was a league ran by the local Parks and Rec Department, we had a 3 hour rules the Saturday before the Season started to go over some basics from Veteran Official.
After, two seasons I finally hung up the coaches whistle and took the local OHSAA class. Now, 5 years later, I am starting to get some Varsity games and and working a ton of ball, and I couldn't be happier with my choice. In fact, I am contemplating quitting as a Football Coach to go Officiate.
