I thought the ref's did a good job overall, sure just like us coaches there are a couple of bad one also.

The thing I like that they did which doesn't happen very often is that they had some experienced refs on the 6U kids mixed in there. Sometime those are the hardest matches to deal with.

Them little guys roll all over the place and flop back and forth you could end up with a 24-20 score after the 1st...lol

Typically rookie refs get on those mats and it hurts them because of the quick flip flop pace.

I seen this at Valley Center with the high school kids doing officiating in the Novice. 14-10 after the 1st...lol

The more experienced wretlers tend to be in more control and most calls are more clear cut which will help out the rookie refs.

Just my thoughts though.
