 This month's talent watch referee is Nicholas Tragoustis.
25 year old Nicholas has been chosen as this month's talent watch referee as positive reports have been recieved regarding his performances on and off the field.  Nick, known as by his mates joined the NSW State League Football Referee's Division last year from the Sydney Schools Soccer Referee's Body where he came highly recommended. At the tail end of last year Nick was fortunate to be selected in the NSWSFLR mentor program that was initiated by the Division and implemented this season.
Nick embraced the program from the moment he was selected and now finds himself refereeing constantly in the Telechoice Premier League U/20 competition. As we are well in the season Nick has been able to show his talent and validate how the mentor program has enhanced his refereeing. Based on his on field performance to date, Nick has definitely improved his refereeing, evidence of this is supported by the many assessors that have watched Nick go around the park. Assessors have identified and commented on many strong points in Nick's game such as: - "Nick is a very good listener, implements advise given on his game" a crucial ingredient for any referee.
- "He is a level headed referee, does not loose his cool."
- "He possesses strong management skills."
- "Good communication with players."
- "He is a team player, uses his assistant referees effectively."
- "Appears to be lifting in confidence with every game."
- "Nick has most traits that referees needs to progress, he just needs more exposure."
