JRut mentioned in his reply..."work as much as you can."
Working any level of game will help you get better. Try to get some youth rec league games in your local area. The speed of the game is generally slower (especially with the younger age groups) and provides a great opportunity to work on things like:

1) Getting OB calls correct relative to team color and direction.
2) Reporting fouls
3) FT and throw-in procedures and mechanics
4) Your whistle, your signals, your voice and your overall court presence.
5) The discipline of focusing on your primary calling area and not being a "ball watcher."
6) Anything that a partner, observer, or evaluator pointed out to you in one of your Frosh/JV games.

Even if you just work on one of these things in each rec game you'll begin to see the difference in your officiating when you work a higher level game.

Good luck...sounds like you're getting off on the right foot.
