My impression, and I know for sure that it's true in our association, is that it's not so hard to recruit new refs as it is to keep the recruits around for a while. To counteract this,
I suggest finding ways to disable the old boys network stuff. It's extremely frustrating to an up and coming ref to see that no matter how hard he or she works, the good games go to the old farts who've definitely seen better days.
Also, a good eval system goes a long way in keeping refs.
Lastly, I think there needs to be a good solid mentoring system in place. Personally, I wish people would have to do X number of years as a mentor before they could even qualify for state tournaments. I think it's that important.
