Its that time of year when you should be paying dues to your association and conference. For me, that always signaled a couple of things:
- You need to start getting back into shape (This assumes that I was ever “in shape” to begin with).
- Familiarize yourself on the new rules changes for each of your levels of football (DON’T GET THEM CONFUSED)
- Sit down and write out your season goals.
Now that I have been using The Official’s Journal for several years, I add one more thing to that list.
I reference a couple of games a week from my last season, see where I failed, or came up short on rules knowledge or mechanics and make sure that I address those in the offseason.
Having the ability to know exactly what went wrong in a game from a year ago is such a valuable way to improve your game. We see THOUSANDS of snaps a year. Remembering every instance of improvement needed is impossible.

or better yet, pick up 3 journals and give two to your friends.
