Referee News from Bill

    Well we got through the opening day and I feel everyone did a great job.  All the games were covered and started on time.  The new referees made it through their first games with out being killed or dieing from being too nervous.  I am very proud of the new referees and kudos to the seasoned vets for doing a great job.  I have had no complaints and even a couple of complements. 
    There is one change that I want to bring to everyone's attention and that on field 5 the numbering is different than what we had originally planned.  5 A&B are now for the U7 and C&D are for U8.  So 5A U7 Girls 5B U7 Boys 5C U8 Girls and 5D U8 Boys.  I hope everyone is as confused as I am now, we will work it out at the fields.
    We will have a referee meeting on Thursday March 1 at Blue Sky 7 pm.  If we are lucky I may even have your checks from the two weekends of games.  I will have goodies to raffle off for those who attend and for those who attended the pre-season meetings you get an extra ticket to win.
    If any one found a Grade 9 referee badge Saturday pleas let me know.  I was blown away
in the wind (imagine that). 
    Thank you once again for doing a great job on the opening weekend and letting all those little munchkins to have some fun too.
 
Thank you,

The system is now open for the next two weekends.  Most of the games are U5-8 but there are a few U9 and above.  Inter City has not finished the schedule for the older ages (U11 +) and they will be in the system soon we hope.
 
Thank you,

    You have only two more chances to get re-certified for the 2007 referee badge if you aren't already.  North Texas is having a test date on Saturday January 27 from 9 am-3 pm, you just have to go in and take your test.  Then on Wednesday January 31 at Blue Sky from 7-9 will be your very last chance to get re-certified with out having to pay extra fees or re-taking the class.  For both of these dates you need to bring your U.S. Soccer Federation registration form or at least have your referee ID number with you.  You do not have to fill out the form just have it with you.
    If you do not get re-certified on one of these dates you will not be able to referee this season.  Plus don't forget to attend one of the pre-season meetings.
 
Thank you,

    I have scheduled 4 pre-season referee meetings.  I need everyone to attend at least one meeting to get some info for next season and also we can update our data base.  The dates for the meetings are Monday Jan 29, Thursday Feb 1, Tuesday Feb 6 and Thursday Feb 8.  All meetings will be at Blue Sky  starting at 7:30 and you need to attend only one.  For those who attend a meeting you will get first opportunity to sign up for games.
I will have hand outs and goodies to raffle off also.
