Just think - if you were a FEEBLE ref, you could count your years in metric so you would be older.

I was 14 when I worked my first softball game. Had my first "professional" game the day I got my drivers license. Started basketball about 17-18. Took a lot of years off and came back to it at 35.

I started baseball when I was 14 (umpiring Little League). I did a few 5/6th games when I was 15 or so. However I had always wanted to umpire/referee ever since I was in Jr. High. So basically I'm following one of my dreams! And it's great too!!
