To REC or not to REC

[steve gillies]

I agree with all these responses, pro's and con's......
It can mess up your mechanics but for a newer official you get some court time if you didn't get a lot of H.S. games.
You get the worst of the cry babies and the most clueless
(rules knowledge) players there are.But it will help you develope your people skills.I've done some of these leagues for a couple years now and most teams and players got to know me and how I officiate a game. They"ve actually come to respect my game and request me for there playoff games.
And the cash is not to bad. Beats flippin burgers....
Try it , if you like , do it....
if you don"t, wait 9 months til next H.S. season....
