NFHS Officiating Principles Course.

[Mike Simonds]

Ken, I'm still working my way through the course. Its very comprehensive.

Here are the 5 major parts:

1 Developing an Officiating Philosophy
2 Psychology of Officiating
3 Personal Fitness for Officials
4 Managing Your Professional Responsibilities
5 The Officiating Profession

What I truly enjoy most about the course is that its very interactive and thought-provoking. It is making me dig deep inside myself and look at not only officiating but life itself in a new way (so many of the same qualities that make an excellent official can be practiced in everyday routines). I hope to get some other people interesting enough to take the course this year so we can share our impressions and experiences.

So far I highly recommend the course.
