Just wondering, how many states have a on field physical fitness test. That is perhaps a mile, 1/2 mile run and possibly some wind sprints. I officiate in NC and we are just in the early stages of installing such test. Next year it will be mandatory for all Varsity officials to take.

Never heard of one.

I have never heard of anyone giving such a test. But if we are making officials take a rules test, which the questions might have little to do with officiating, then why not give a test where it requires some physical activity? At least running is something that they will actually do during a game. Peace

I don't know if it will be helpful to you, but we just had a long discussion of the FIBA test:
http://www.officialforum.com/thread/10081 We don't have any such test in MA that I know of.

Samdog, as officials we should have a passion for the game. If you have that passion then there is nothing wrong with preparing for the game. If you take care of rules knowledge, dress and appearance, and physical fitness before you step on to the floor you will be more prepared to referee. That is what we should all strive for, to Referee.
I just thought of that. I'm going to try to officiate less and Referee more. Anyone on the rise or on top should know what that means. |

I think that he might be trying to point out that the colleges are looking for "take charge" officials. Been that way for a long time,actually.You usually don't make it if you aren't.In top-flight games,all 3 officials on the floor will have that attribute.

The coach walked over where I stood, But, I knew that rule and was lookin' good. A "take charge" official may have been defensive Because he didn't have the ball. |
