Overview

The article from Referee.com explains the traits of an effective official. You don’t usually, for example, develop a calming influence or become great game managers without learning it somewhere. Officials develop from making mistakes, listening to mentors and supervisors, and going to camps. From those experiences, officials become recognized and noticed in a positive way. You’re not just the official taking assignments for a paycheck, showing up at game time and throwing your shirt on, then blasting out of the arena immediately afterward.

This alignment results from the ALEX Health/PE COS Resource Alignment Summit.
