Richard, I think that Matthew read the "how old the scorer was" comment and the lower level game comment and assumed, as did I, that the implication was that the younger scorers you frequently have in lower level games do not always do an adequate job. We actually have our middle school girls AAU teams keep the book and they do better than most parents usually do because they understand the game and their job.

I'm a big fan of early invovlement in sports officiating, and of youth officials. My son started reffing soccer as a 12 year old and does better than many of the adult refs we had in lower level rec games. He can cover the field and understands the game at a level above many beginning refs. And yes, I am biased in this regard
