In our episode this week, I spoke to Tim Wyatt, a sports psychologist in training about the need to consider mental skills for our refereeing. We cover a lot of ground, chatting about identifying your own values for refereeing, and then how we prep for a game, cope during the game, and finally the importance of reflection. Here’s the article we referenced a few times.
