2006 USSF Professional League Seminars Announced

Through Memorandum, US Soccer announced the dates and locations of all professional league seminars throughout the country today.  These are clinics that ALL non-national referees must attend to be eligible for professional game assignments in 2006.  (This is in addition to your state's annual recertification requirement; however, upon prior approval, may be used to satisfy some/all of the annual advanced instruction and physical fitness requirements.)

Attendance is granted by invitation only (and only to those who are grade 7, 6, or 5). 

TO APPLY: simply send a short request to your District Referee Administrator (find your DRA here).  Upon their approval, your name will be submitted to the SRA who tenders a list to US Soccer.  Kentucky normally sends all of our referees to the clinic in Southern Ohio (this year being held on April 22).

APPLICATION DEADLINE:  MARCH 31, 2005
