It's the same here in the States.  What cured me of it was coaching my kids in both ice hockey and soccer. (I know!  Should be "football" like the rest of the world!)

Having started out with very young (under 5) to high school (under 19) gave me a much better appreciation for coaches AND referees.  Everyone should take a stint at both.
