I reffed everything from U-11 to U-17 and Frosh, JV, and Varsity High School. I appreciated the answer about officials, because in the 8 years I officiated I felt I did a great job of communicating with players on the field...I only gave one red card my whole career (I didn't appreciate the adjective and noun a player used to describe me :)) I have to say most of my colleagues fit your description of a good ref and they are also good people off the field. I decided to retire before I could ever cost a team a game by not being physically able to keep up. (U-15 players stay 15 years old...I kept getting older!) I'm also proud to say I did.

Now that you have come out to one of your teammates-does he react against it now? Does he understand how you feel when they use words like that? <br />Also, do your coaches ever say anything about it when your teammates say something homophobic in front of them? /LouiseAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6095913441506295275.post-63473127535397053482011-04-16T09:29:37.595-04:002011-04-16T09:29:37.595-04:00Congratulations on the one year anniversary of you...Congratulations on the one year anniversary of your blog! Sharing your personal journey has been an inspiration for your readers, who, because of your writing, can identify and relate their personal journeys to your own. I enjoy reading your blog because I find your words and experiences uplifting, insightful, and personal. You are a young man who will continue to find success in the classroom, on the field, and in your life. <br />Thanks for the opportunity to ask a question, and mine will have two parts: What is the personal and/or professional quality you appreciate most in a coach and why? In a soccer referee/official and why? As a former youth recreational soccer coach and former FIFA/High School soccer official, I would enjoy hearing your viewpoint.<br />May the remainder of your semester be successful!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6095913441506295275.post-32893200375082442232011-04-11T11:03:12.020-04:002011-04-11T11:03:12.020-04:00You deserve a pat on the back.

I hope you see that gay guys come in a number of different forms than the stereotypes and that you never have to worry about being alone.
