He continued his involvement in refereeing by becoming the Director of Officials for United States Soccer in August 1998. He is currently working for Fédération internationale de football association as a technical instructor in the Referee Assistance Program (Fédération internationale de football association RAP) and dealt with the instruction and preparation of the referees for the 2010 World Cup in South Africa.
