I don't think it is designed to help one improve, but I've always tried to view it that way. I've never run into a rating this low for softball so it was pretty upsetting to see it in basketball.
Again, the biggest frustration is that it is only coaches with input on the rating. In Missouri it's supposed to be broken down this way: 1-State level official 2-District/Sectional Official 3-Varisty Official 4-Sub Varsity 5-Not ready to officiate The only time the coach has to be specific in any way is if they give a 5. At that point, they have to write a report to the state office. So, it doesn't help anyone get any better. As stated, the state uses these ratings in order to select those officials to do sectionals and beyond. While I have a few years to go before I get that far, I'd like to think am better than what I was rated. |

I wouldn't get too hung up on your ratings. For instance, the year I was selected to officiate the state finals was the same year I had one of my worst ratings years.

In one game, you could spend time explaining legitimate questions to a coach that asks respectfully. In the same game, the other coach may be yelling and pleading for calls from the tip. You tell him he has said enough and needs to stop. Ratings? One coach is going to say you were a great communicator and answered his questions thoroughly. The other is going to say you are a poor communicator. Add to that the fact that some high school officials are in this for the wrong reason so you get one guy who was buddy-buddy with the coach and now you are taking care of business. Odds are his communication ratings are high and yours are low. In reality, you may be the better official. At the college level, this is a little different because the baseline should be more consistent. Therefore, if I'm told I'm a poor communicator by a college assignor, I'd take steps to improve. High School? Not so much. |

I agree...... I had coach this year upset with me because I did not discuss a call (don't know how I could) as lead --- across the lane during action. During the timeout he really "gave it to me " because of this and at that point I gave him the stop sign. I'm sure he rated me highly in the communication department ??
Just a few weeks ago I talked with a friend of mine who is a coach and discussed "communication" with him. I told him that I continually hear coach's stating this is what is lacking from officials etc.. etc.. I told him many times when I try to communicate with the coach it's really just an opportunity for him/her to complain (bit&# session). He said that for the most part that I was probably right ..............this coach rarely says anything to officials. He said he doesn't says anything to the officials because it "takes away from his in-game coaching" and that his players might feed off of it. Oh, well............till next year |
