Well I've got 4 sets of rulebooks/casebooks, one for each year I've been officiating, but this year, I joined another association and they gave the simplified and illustrated book.

I have to say that after reading it that all associations should give this book to their rookies. I wish I got it when I started, if I didn't know the rules well now, I could learn a lot from it.

I dunno why I'm posting this, I just think everyone should find a copy of that book.

Thats odd that you have never seen the simplified and illustrated. Each year, my state association sends all four books (rules, case book, officials manual, and simp & illustrated) to all officials that are licensed or trying to get licensed through the state.
