FOOTALL OFFICIALS CLINIC REQUIREMENT (starting with the 2008-09 season)
New football officials are required to attend an IHSAA sponsored clinic within the three years of their initial registration. Also, any official wanting to be considered for tournaments is required to attend a clinic within the next 3 years STARTING with the 2008 season. No fee will be charged for attending these clinics. Circle T officials (officials who are registered for lower level contests only) and officials not interested in working tournaments are not required to attend a clinic. A rules meeting will be offered as part of the clinics, however, individuals must attend both the clinic AND rules meeting to receive credit. Officials and coaches can not just attend the rules meeting portion of the clinic for rules meeting approval. Exception: Mason City. IHSAA "Sponsored" clinics would be the only clinics in which IHSAA rules meetings would be provided. CLINIC DATES ARE......
