Fundamentals

When I first began my officiating career, I was handed some basic fundamentals that I unconsciously carry into my game today. During a preseason conference call Jon Levinson NCAA Women’s secretary-rules editor reminded the group of these fundamentals.   Every sport has them. In fact every profession has some fundamentals or basics that we should remind ourselves of.  Find them. Use them.“Fundamentals were the most crucial part of my game in the NBA. Everything I did, everything I achieved, can be traced back to the way I approached the fundamentals.  -Michael Jordan
