The United States Soccer Federation National Program for Referee Development has scheduled fifteen Regional Professional Referee Training Seminars for all referees interested in officiating at the professional level this season.

All referees who plan on working in the professional league must attend one of these seminars. In 2008 the presentation is for top instructors and assessors this year, as well as, the referees. State and National Instructors and Assessors and any administrators active in the state referee program should be notified that they are welcome to attend day two of the workshop so they can be kept abreast of the information we are giving the referees at these sessions.

*** IMPORTANT ***  Referees participating will be responsible for their own transportation to and from the clinic.

If you are interested in coming or would just like additional information, please contact either Bill Pasnak, SDI or Curt Hamlin, SRA for seating availability. If you cannot make the Rochester clinic then make plans to get to a clinic being held elsewhere. A complete list of clinics is posted at:
