In Episode 9 of Partners in Progress, we're joined by Elbert Lassiter, who works with an organization that trains football officials for the high school and college levels across Central North Carolina.

Elbert gives us a look at a side of football that most fans rarely get to see, the preparation, training, decision-making, and logistics that go into officiating a game.

We talk about what it takes to become an official, the challenges they face on game day, and the many details happening behind the scenes to keep the game moving.

It's a fascinating conversation about football from a completely different perspective.
