If you’ve ever fancied trying your hand at Officiating, or perhaps you’ve already started your training and just want to get more experience and advice, then this bootcamp is just for you!
This bootcamp will be broken off into two groups – Skating Officials and NSOs, so you can work on skills specific to your particular role. The groups will then be brought back together to put their skills into practice as a crew and officiate a Skater Debut scrimmage.
Skater Debut event: https://www.facebook.com/
The sessions will be run by Rainy City’s Head Referee Daniel Errington and Head NSO Pretty Miffed (Level 2 WFTDA NSO), who have a wealth of Officiating knowledge and experience behind them.
