In this episode of Uncoached, I sit down with David Gerson, the creator behind Refs Need Love Too, to talk about the role referees play in youth sports and why parents, coaches, and players need a better understanding of what officials deal with during games. David shares practical insight on sideline behavior, respecting officials, coaching players through frustration, and how adults can help create a better game-day environment for everyone involved.


Questions we cover in this episode:

  1. What’s the biggest misconception parents and coaches have about how officials make decisions during a game?
  2. If every youth sports parent had to referee just one game, what do you think would surprise them the most?
  3. What’s the difference between a coach who challenges a referee respectfully and a coach who becomes a problem?
  4. What can coaches do when one of their players isn’t treating a referee the right way?
  5. If you could install one new rule for youth sports sidelines tomorrow, what would it be, and why?

Bonus Question:
What’s one thing you’ve seen a coach do during a tense game that instantly earned the respect of the referee crew?
