And, I changed careers and am now a teacher.

Welcome to the club lol. If you are not mentally tired after doing vball then you aren't doing it right.

I watched the Miami-Wake Forest Volleyball game that was on TV last night. It was mentally tiring just watching it trying to take it all in.

I think working any sport is mentally demanding, because as you start out, you're thinking about where you are, where you should be, what the call is, what the rule is, etc. Throw in the the physical part and it's that much more of a challenge.

I know a guy who is a flagger at a local NASCAR track, he is gets tired from all the mental and organizational tasks he's doing while the cars are racing.

The throwing of the flags is very little of all the things he does.

Its the same thing though to officiate something well you have to have the energy invested in it
