If you've never taken a Referee's exam then you may wonder what SRD is all about. SRD stands for "State Referee's Decision", and it is one of two types of questions on hockey officials' exams (the other is multiple choice -- much easier!). SRD means that an essay style answer is required. Naturally most Referee's hate SRD's, and likewise, most people marking the exams don't like SRD's much either.
Take a stab at this week's question. Sometimes you will need some pretty deep knowledge of the rulebook, other times it will SEEM easy....
