@TonyHaker @NickyPearson65 That issue is what caused the delays.

That was rectified at the end of last week and has been dealt with now.

We have been working with @eodsa77 and @EODSAReferee to provide this learning through the past year.

You should have received all of those emails asking the way, including a new law review last Tuesday.

[Taker @TonyHaker]

@SOSARefs was wondering why I cannot find any resources on the Sosa website for referees. Videos, zoom meetings etc about new laws, reviews etc?

[SOSA Referees @SOSARefs]

Successful day out at the new referee practical training this morning. Long and hot, but successful.

[SOSA Referees @SOSARefs]

Last night's education session on Handball incidents... Good discussion, some tech issues at the start, but once resolved, pretty smooth and we'll received!

[SOSA Referees @SOSARefs]

As we prepare to return to play (still a ways off), we wonder if we should be prepared for this to happen...

@TonyHaker Again, no venue could be sourced.

Find a venue for next year and a fitness test can be arranged.

In terms of assessments, both styles are done.

Having said that, if a referee requires one for grade, the responsibility to request is on the referee.

[SOSA Referees @SOSARefs]

SOSA offers fitness tests and requested one to be set up for the Belleville/Quinte West area but no location could be confirmed.

As for assessements, the onus is on the referee to make the request.

[Taker @TonyHaker]

@SOSARefs How do get to upgrade? Considering there wasn’t a fitness test offered in our area and why no assessments on referees that need one.
