Referee Training

2013

Time to start to think about training!

Are you ready to earn playoff points for your child’s team this season by refereeing? This training alone will earn your child’s U10 through U14 team 5 points (up to 10 points per team) of the total points they need to earn to qualify for our regional playoffs. Are you a U14 player? You can earn points for your own team by refereeing U10 games! Games cannot be played without trained referees, so please get trained and join the referee staff.

Please RSVP with Mike Vargas (lilvshood@yahoo.com) or Chris Doucette (agreferee@yahoo.com)
