Friday night was the start of our high school season as we officiated a Varsity football scrimmage.
Both teams looked pretty good on offense and it was nice to get back out there and run the field. The weather was hot, the players were passionate, and I was pumped up chest bumping my fellow refs. Friday night lights are back!
I had a few penalties and some talk to the players about situations.
Hard hits, explosive touchdowns, and what? No screaming coaches or fans at the officials??? Not yet. Soon.
The following day I reffed a few Peewee football games and that went smooth. Some really good young football players.
This Friday is the official start to the season as we officiate in the Skyline Crosstown Showdown. We have Lakota West vs. Northmont and it should be a dandy of a game to kickoff the season!
