1. Throughout the year – collect information about referees

a. Sources:

i. Letters to club
ii. Email from current referees – they should be told to inform of changes.
iii. Information from Referee Training Coordinator about new referees.
iv. Information from Referee Trainer about level of competency of referees (to help determine line/center level)
v. Early May – send an email application to all current referees asking them to update info and asking for availability for HABO, fall season, and other local August tournaments (optional) – see sample in folder.

2. Master Roster and email list – maintain and keep current.

a. Forward to HABO referee coordinator.
b. Forward to Assigner about three weeks before the season.

3. Track referee registration and reimbursement. Verify all referees reregister.

a. Referees inform you when they re-register. We reimburse them (currently $25) if they request it when they provide proof of current registration (copy of current ref card or copy of current patch). Provide list to Club Treasurer for reimbursement at end of season and as required.
b. Or referees send applications to you. You verify the application is filled out correctly, get a check from the Club Treasurer and mail (I do this in batches) to appropriate address. This is actually the best way since know it gets done.
c. Maintain list of re-registered referees. Contact referees that have not verified re-registration. We need to keep all referees registered!
d. Maintain list of referee registration numbers. Must have this to deal with national incase of a problem.

4. Uniform reimbursement: we reimburse new referees $60 for their first uniform, and all referees $20 if they buy a red jersey. This has been on the honor system. All they need do is request reimbursement from you. Track and forward list to the Club Treasurer periodically.
