Re: Where's the Gracious Professionalism?
Mhm. This year my team went to the new week one event down in Central Illinois. The reffing was off on some things, but it wasn't all that bad compared to some complaints, especially during week one. No serious problems with calls or anything that would have decided matches. It was clear that the refs had a lot to learn about how to work the field and how and what to call things, but that's understandable. Fast forward to week 4 Wisconsin...mostly all the same refs as week 1, but things had changed. It was clear that the group was more confident and that the team was working better together than they had during week 1. It was clear that they had gone on to learn from mistakes, missed calls, field errors, etc. and worked to make their team better so that they could handle a much larger regional.
Just one example about how people can work to improve themselves to make their jobs easier and to take some problems and resolve them. I think they did a very good job.
