New college ref advice

I'm not a college ref, but the thing I have learned this year is to know your role. Know what plays you can see and what you can't. Know when to say something to a coach and when to let your R take care of it. Know when to speak and when to keep your mouth shut. Know when to make a necessary call out of your area, know when to trust your partners. I'm still figuring out the basics, but I hope that helps.

There are a lot of areas where one of two things happens:

(1) HS hoops is dominated by old boy networks and officials make the jump from subvarsity HS right to college ball.

(2) JuCo isn't much to sneeze at.

Only you know your area.
