2023 Officials Apprentice Level Training Clinics

APPRENTICE CLINICS  (for new officials)

This is a "hands-on" course which is 6 hours in length and designed for a brand new official or someone who feels they need a little extra education on the basics.  We focus on High School rules. Previously certified officials who have never attended the hands-on version of the clinic are encouraged to attend.
 
Attendees will work with the actual tools of the trade–measuring tapes, marking canes, flags, cones, scoresheets, crossbars and stopwatches. The majority of the exercises utilize scaled mock-ups of throwing circles, long jump, high jump, track markings and relay zones. Topics covered include: safety, philosophy of officiating, field events (marking, measuring, recording, fouls, flight coordinating) and track events (starting lines, break line, violations, umpiring and relays).
 
Due to time constraints, we do not teach: Referee, Starter, Race Walk, Cross Country or setting up the Pole Vault.
