Re: Improving Officiating at FIRST Events
Madison,

I suggest you bring this up directly to FIRST, specifically Aiden Brown. I am sure he will welcome all suggestions and ways to improve. He and Dave Lavery were at St. Louis this weekend and were very interested in the referees and the scoring system. By the way, the reffing at St. Louis was excellent. They did a great job explaining the violations and were consistent with their calls.

There were some discrepancies with counting lines and counting trackballs, but I suspect that will get worked out soon.

In any case, the most effective way to get things done regarding this is directly with Aiden. Specific examples and situations are always best.

-Paul
