Re: Referees and Human Players

I have reffed one event and have another next weekend. As alluded to, it is extremely difficult to watch the field and then watch the teams behind the glass. The only time I called this was in the eliminations when I noticed balls were not being picked out of the corral. The worst part was it changed the outcome of the match. However, this is one foul that really does have the potential to change the game (ball hording).

Going forward, it would be great to have more refs for the sake of consistency, but in some regions it is hard just to get a head ref and five others. I was "on-call" this weekend for a regional because there was concern that they would not have five refs.
