A Learning Moment, Regardless of Who the Athlete Is

From time to time, we talk about being fair handed as an Official. Some of us struggle when we officiate a young child, our own child or even a world class athlete. Here's a short video with Jim Naber (those of us old enough remember Jim from the 70's) where he talks about being disqualified at Nationals and his thoughts on being disqualified. In his words, play fair and teach the swimmers the truth. Enjoy this teaching moment...
