Officiating's Cool

Well it’s been a while, but we got some requests for a cool charge/block video, and one of you guys even suggested a nice one, that is down below. As always the clips are not to make fun of the referees, but we want to aim on improving our own judgement through understanding what happens. Let youtube in this case be your own IRS in a way 😉
So what is your call and why??

There’s a good reason that you don’t want to lose sight of the players. We have an awesome clip down here from Referee University.

We did it before, and we’re doing it again: Tournament Talk. There is hardly a better way imaginable to meet other referee-maniacs such as yourself. For coaches it’s great to work tournaments because there’s an immediate option for the coachee to work with the feedback given. And hey: tournament refereeshirts add to the fun too right?
