Advice for new official

[zebraman55]

As a new official, contact your state high school association and request information about local associations. The associations will provide opportunities for rules discussions, mechanics discussions, and game assignments. there is no greater learning experience than getting on the field and working games.

Plus, when you are working games, the guys you work with will give you some advice on play situations, mechanics, and player/sideline control.

ASsociations are a great way to make contacts, meet experienced officials, and to broaden your view of the rules.

Best wishes in pursuing this wonderful avocation!
