I've reffed on and off for a while, I don't call much, have made bad calls, and missed bad play. I am often not heard telling players to tap out because I don't shout enough, etc etc. We could ref team games, or even throw-ins as practice, and if you are serious about getting into it, ref at any tourneys that you can. Some will be good at it some wont, but until we have the luxury of too many refs, then we need to make people do it.
Yes, we all need more experience and confidence.
