Do we have a "head official(s)" for the state? Can we establish something like that? Get the top 1 or 2 from each district and set that advisory board up if not already there. We all know that you are not suppose to speak ill of those you work with but we have all had conversations with some of our more experienced officials and they will honestly tell you so and so has issues or should not be doing this at certain levels. I could see this benefiting everyone in the long run.

I watched and discussed Nathan Stanley with a couple other Officials this weekend and that kid (he is a kid, still in school) is pretty darn good, better than some that are turning grey and have years of "experience". He could be the face of the next generation of officials (or not) but currently he acts and works more professional than some others that were voted into the state tournament and that was acknowledged by many.

We also have to remember no one is perfect and everybody has their bad day we just hope that it isn't on our kids biggest day.
