| - you become a better ref - you see more...have to react to more...make more mistakes... and learn to get better - you get to do better games...more skilled players, better competition (i.e. WAGS/NCSL U-17/U19 Div 1 teams, state cup games, tournament semi-finals and finals, etc). having said all that, some people are very happy doing recreational league games and do not want to advance. Nothing wrong with that either. Everybody just needs to try and find the level they are best at/most comfortable with. one additional thought... |
