Hi refchat,
I have been observing silently for a while on some threads for quite some time, but made an account to make my first post.
I am currently 16, soon 17 and have been refereeing local for 2 years now (up to u16). I am seeking to earn promotion to level 6 as reaching some significant national level is one of my aspirations. I signed up to a local divisions step 4/5/6 list for next season - would most likely begin at AR due to my age and inexperience in the semi-professional game. Is the step up big? I am used to dealing with standard backchat at Sunday league level, is this a good place to begin?
Thanks
