You may not think you have any problems, but I defy you to look at the tape of your first and 6th games and not see a drastic decline in ability. 10? Ridiculous. It's all about the money for people who work that many games.

Speak for yourself! It is never about the money for me. I do more volunteer reffing than any other official in our association - Special Olympics, Lions Club All Star Games, Senior Party Fund Raiser tournaments, scrimmages etc. I also do very few AAU tournaments - typically two per year because the guy that organizes those two is a friend and fellow official.

And when I do do AAU my partner gets the following pregame - "Our mechanics will be by the books and that includes switching!"

It is all about the Zigs and hydration!
