FIND A TEAM TO TRAIN WITH! They will help you be ready for the tables.
Choose Your Events Wisely.
Good refereeing could mean the difference between a win and a loss, or a loss and and a broken arm. Good officials are able to spot disasters before they happen, and keep opponents from cheating and gaining an unfair advantage over you. It doesn't hurt to ask the director about who they have officiating before entering a tournament.
