The purpose of preventive medicine is to avoid health problems before they begin.

Generally, people who eat a balanced diet, watch their weight, exercise, sleep well, keep a positive mental attitude and do not smoke are much healthier than those who do the opposite. It is much less costly, both financially and emotionally, to prevent health problems than to cure them.

Preventive Officiating: How a Referee Avoids Trouble on the Soccer Field will help with many of the challenges facing a referee and assistant referees before problems begin. This book will provide a greater understanding of the game to help prevent players from becoming injured in some cases. Because, just as in medicine, it’s much easier to prevent problems than it is to search for a cure.
