The people that taught me to officiate always said that appearance is 80% of officiating. If you look like you know what you're doing and get into good position, you aren't going to have problems. Your body type may have an effect on how the coaches and fans percieve you (as will age, young or old, wearing glasses, tatoos, ect.). Personally I really feel that staying in pretty good shape helps my presence on the floor. I do know as you climb the ladder into college, your appearance becomes more important. I'm about 6 feet, average when I'm around high school officials, but when I go to college camps, I'm one of the short guys.
