Organization Submitting RFD:

Armstrong Park SC

Programme Area:

Armstrong Park Outdoor League

Secondary Programme Area(s)

Armstrong Park Indoor League

 

Present Situation:

Due to the continuous shortage of qualified officials and although a number of individuals have successfully completed their Level 3 Referee course this past year, most of our Level 3 candidates are not “age eligible” to officiate in the adult divisions while some are ineligible due to still playing in one division or another.

 

Specific Decision Requested:

Allow the Club to assign ‘adult’ Level 4 Referees to officiate adult games when necessary.

 

Budget Requirements (Change if any): This year:

$0.00

Availability of Funds if not included in this year's budget:

N/A

 

 

Advantages:

In order to ensure that all adult games are officiated by a ‘recognized referee’ (one who has at least taken the basic entry level course and officiated for a significant period of time), our Club requests permission to assign ‘adult’ Level 4 officials if no qualified Level 3 person is available.  Permission to do so would also eliminate having to continuously reschedule games in our very short playing season.

Possible Objections:

None expected

Alternatives:

Constant rescheduling or possible cancellation of games.

Attachments:

N/A
