Two observations.

First, there is a big difference between six years officiating, and having six first years of officiating.

Second, reaching and helping is a contentious issue. We should be able to trust our partners and watch our area. But on a rare occasion where you get a partner who simply does not belong on the floor, I think you have to consider extending some. The best advice I've been given on this is that the farther you have to reach, the bigger it needs to be.

Exactly. Everything has its time and place.

Or, as we say in the baseball forum: there's a difference between six years' experience and one year's experience six times. (Copyright Jim Evans)
