Risky Business: Officiating sports can be dangerous to your legal health-- unless you know the 7 "hot spots" of officiating liablity!
Successful sports officials avoid “Liability hot spots” by demonstrating the following attributes:
(1) Rules Knowledge. A thorough understanding of the rules is required if players, coaches, and onlookers are to be protected from bodily injury;
(2) Mechanics . Competent officials manage risk by being in the right place and using approved techniques to enforce all rules dealing with safety related issues;
(3) Courage. Prudent officials do not permit anyone to prevent him or her from attending to the tasks at hand; and.
(4) The Appearance of Impartiality. We all know refs are impartial. No official cares who wins the game or match. But do you exhibit the appearance of being impartial? Successful officials know the difference between perception and reality and act accordingly.
Experience tells us that certain aspects of officiating present legal liability land mines that need to be addressed.
