COVID-19

And then the novel coronavirus hit and blew everything to pieces, at least reffing-wise. I want to thank the few organizations that have tried to hold some training sessions for us to keep us thinking of soccer, but I have to admit, I for one, have not really been out running much and have almost felt like stuff is not going to go back to what it was any time soon.

The other day I saw an email from one of the referee supply vendors saying that we needed to all buy an electronic whistle because you won't be able to blow a whistle with a mask on. To which I kinda say, I don't think I will be reffing if I need to have a mask on. At least not in 90 degree weather that is going to be rolling in soon. I have a hard time breathing with the mask on just walking around.

But in all seriousness, let's try to stay safe and somewhat fit if nothing else. Things are starting to ease up, and hopefully we can get out on the pitch soon. I may even start running again as the only running I have done is in Call of Duty Warzone lately.
