Officials' Upgrade Opportunity & Coach Education

 

This year, during the Folkstyle session at WAWA state from 8-11, there will be an opportunity for continuing education for officials and coaches.  It is called the RCEP (Referee and Coach Education Program) and is highly recommended for any mat officials who are looking to upgrade from an M3 to an M2 and for any coaches who are looking to continue their education and knowledge, especially for those looking to earn Silver Certification as this is one of the required tasks.  It covers topics such as comparisons of freestyle, Greco-Roman and folkstyle rule sets, the complexities of video, maintaining professionalism, creating positive environments for coaches, referees, and athletes to work together, and more.    Attendance at this clinic is OPTIONAL, however, once you enter the clinic, you must stay for the entire time.

    Additionally, mat officials' gifts this year are shirts that Tony had to order ahead of time, so sizes and quantity may be limited.  Officials will receive their gift based on a first-come, first-registered basis, and anyone that does not receive it at state will receive it later in a secondary order.

    Tony will also be setting up an additional education/information meeting that will be occurring over Zoom for any officials interested in learning more about upgrading and key points to be prepared for their upgrade opportunity at state.  This link and information will come out soon.

Any questions, please contact Tony Knezovich at tjknezovich@gmail.com or 307-354-8111.
