I hear what you are saying and it is no utopia down under.There was for a very long time the glass ceiling-which is why I work so much with young officials as well as the older ones.I am just trying to make things different for them-you had to be tough skinned and tenacious to come through the ranks in the 80's
The sad thing is I am still giving the skirts down knickers up talk to female officials-reminding them that anything they do in a social situation will be remembered long after their ability to officiate.Unlike their male counterparts.
We (local association) regularly run female only workshops to bring them together from all over NZ and provide topics pertinent to our experiences of reffing.
Anytime anyone is travelling (male or female)get in touch we always have games for you to work especially over your summer?
