Ever wonder what goes through a grassroots referee's mind? Well you don’t need to wonder anymore, This episode I’m joined by James Henderson, a local referee. We talked about his experiences, what makes a good referee, what makes a not so good referee and the future of the next generation. There are some very important lessons to take away from this podcast and really helped me understand the referees point of view. I really enjoyed talking to James and hopefully we can talk again in the future.
