: In reference to the referee debate. As Nate stated, the head referee is a staff person from FIRST. The remaining referees are volunteers that are recruited for each regional event. These volunteers who have take vacation time from a busy work schedule volunteer 3 days at the regional. Recruitment for volunteers to act as refs is done early. Each volunteer is given a rulebook and updates by FIRST. In addition to the 3 days these people give to this event they spend countless hours studying the rules and then meet with FIRST officials prior to the regional for additional training. The referees at the Lone Star Regional did a wonderful job and my hat is off to them since they had the courage to volunteer for this THANKLESS JOB!

Please take a moment of time before you make such HARSH judgements to reflect on the fact that these people take time away from their families and busy work schedules to volunteer. IF YOU DON'T HAVE REFEREES YOU CAN'T HAVE A COMPETITION! The next time you want to criticize the call of a referee...WHY DON'T YOU TAKE A MOMENT AND VOLUNTEER FOR THE POSITION AT THE NEXT REGIONAL. Lucia Sevcik, Regional Coordinator
