It's only 6 days since my last post but I've packed a fair amount into them.
I had a night off last Thursday from everything and it was needed before a busy weekend. On Friday I travelled with work to our office in Runcorn before heading to Wakefield to carry out my 18th assessment of the season. The game was challenging and the referee was suffering from a lack of match practice having recently come back from his honeymoon.
On Saturday a trip to Bradford to watch a female Supply League referee. I found a few pointers to help her develop and she acknowledged them with grace, commenting that she had identified one herself and was working on it.
Sunday was full of stress as I led the first day of a course for 23 new referees. There should have been 26, but three didn't turn up despite our best efforts to get them in. It was hard enough with my fellow tutors as Umar had had a very late night and Dave arrived an hour later than planned.
Things went quite well, despite a few hiccups. Day two is next Sunday.
