Teen-age Officials

[SMEngmann]

My only piece of advice is to not worry about judgement right away, it will only come with seeing plays at different levels and with experience. Make sure you know the rules and that you're in the right place and looking in the right place first. A lot of the acceptance of the call has to do with where you are when you blow your whistle and how confident you look, in other words, your believability. Judgement will come, but make sure your mechanics are good, you look the part and you hustle.
