Great thread man. I use to ref at a field in SJ, won't mention the name.....it rhymes with Hino's......but anyway....the air ball fields are on the same lot as a driving range(both under the same owner) and at about 8:00 Sunday morning, we'd be out on the fields with golf ball punchers(on average their would be about 50 golf balls on each field, yes i've counted before that's how horribly tired and bored I was) aside from filling the bunkers, it was work! The worst is if it had rained that night and the field was wet or the seal's on the fills were broke and leaked....those bunkers do not cooperate. But all in all it was a great experience. The pay was crap, but I didn't do it for that. They took care of us(bought us pizza's every lunchtime, free waters/gatorades all day to keep us hydrated)we could play for free when we weren't reffing. It did get to the point where i'd jump in games while on the job because of how hard it was to stay away from ball-to-face-ing some kiddies, and eventually I quit/got fired...haha....but all in all it was a great experience and I highly recommend it to anyone interested in meeting great people, and really getting to know the game better. You really do pick up some things by watching people play all day, shooting lanes, what bunkers work in what situations etc.
