Happy New Year to everyone,
As many of you already know I was appointed to the
position of Wisconsin State Referee Committee Chairman by the President of the
Wisconsin Soccer Association and approved by the the majority of the WSA Board
members. The documents have gone through the proper USSF laws and procedures.
They have been sent to the USSF office in Chicago and I have already received
communication from Paul Tamberino, USSF Director of Referee Development, and Al
Kleinaitis USSF Manager of Referee Development and Education, and I am ready to
start the duties of my position.
I want to thank everyone who helped to select my name
for the position of Wisconsin State Referee Chairman and I will dedicate myself
to guiding the State of Wisconsin Referees, Instructors, Assignors and
Assessors to achieve their personal goals while also making sure that we
service the game of soccer at every level in a professional and ethical
manner.
I will work with all levels of our committee to
provide the tools needed to help them meet their goals, duties and ambitions
whenever possible. I will also work with all areas of our soccer community to
meet their needs in game scheduling and providing a solid well developed
Referee crew for every game in a safe environment. We all know how the weather,
individual club needs, State and national schedules and our own individual
needs can affect our program and my office will be open to meet necessary
changes.
One of my top priorities will be to help develop our
Referees all over Wisconsin and to assure them an equal opportunity to meet
their individual ambitions with up to date and informative instructional
clinics, well educated Assessors from Wisconsin and the national pool and with
some challenging games. All Referees in the state will be available to all
Assignors.
I want to assure everyone that all Referee, Assessor
and Assignor clinics will continue as scheduled. I am instructing all clinic
administrators that all checks used by referees, Assignors and Assessors for
registration must be made out to the "State Referee Committee" and accompany
the registration forms. All registration materials and money must be sent to
the:
Wisconsin Soccer Association
10708 W. Hayes
Avenue
West Allis, WI 53227
in care of the State Referee
Committee. Your cooperation will ensure the smooth process needed to make
sure that national registration time lines are achieved and all referees,
Instructors, Assignors and Assessors get their USSF certification
credentials.
