ANNOUNCEMENTS – Bob Reinman

CSVA Referee Clinic: Bob Reinman will present a practical Referee Clinic on Feb. 12, 2010, from 8:00 am-noon at Commerce City Rec. Center. He stressed it is important that referees for CSVA league matches attend this clinic to

be brought up to date on all the new USAV rules that are now in effect for CSVA matches. Contact Fran Zelinkoff at [email protected] to attend the clinic. There is no charge for CSVA-related people, but we need to know how many chairs to set up for the lecture part of the clinic. Fran will have the current 2009-2011 USAV Rulebooks at our cost of $5.

Snow Lopez recommended that the date for the next Referee Clinic in the Fall 2010 not conflict with the High School championships because many referees are attending those championship games, and CSVA has now changed that date to Friday, Oct 22, 2010, 8:00am-noon, at Commerce City Rec Center.
