New Ref

[SoFL_Rookie]

Always ask for feedback from experienced officials.

I am fairly new also - first year HS after 2 years of rec ball. You'll get some great pointers, and some that won't help you at all.

If you're lucky, the veteran official will give you 1 or 2 things to work on, and maybe a compliment on something he/she liked. Because you can only work on 1 or 2 things at a time when you're new.

If you're not lucky, you'll get a laundry list of perceived mistakes you're making. My advice is, in either case, just say "thanks for the help" and just keep what you can use.

Good luck.
