Exclamation DON'T DO THEM!!!!!!

I am sorry, I find no reason to do these leagues if you are a serious ref. If you have dreams and aspirations for NF ball or college ball, I really do not see the point. You are not going to work with good officials many times (because good officials do not want to do rec ball or have the time). You are not going to see good basketball most of the time. You are not going to see offenses run. You are going to miss out on all the things that a "real" game is going to have, and that is the problem. You might benefit from working on your mechanics, but you can do the same thing by reading and looking in the mirror. I might be the minority on this one, but unless you are in a teaching environment or you are in a camp setting, stay away from these games. This is the place bad habits are established, and all you do is get frustrated, because the players and fans and coaches usually want you to cut corners or not apply all the rules. I could go on and on, but I did them my first year, I do not see myself doing them again.

Period!!!
