Do you still enjoy refereeing? If yes, then get with a physical therapist and have them teach you the proper exercises to strengthen and improve flexibility in the hips.

If you find out you are beyond what physical therapy can do to help you, then check out a hip replacement called, The Birmingham Hip. I got mine May of 07 works perfectly. I referee any Basketball game or Soccer Match I want to pain free.
