Most Districts will be voting on the officials that they want representing them a their respective seeding meetings. Please take the time to identify and vote for officials in your area that you have seen that perform a good job. If you do not vote at your seeding meeting, contact your district director to submit your votes.

Thanks,

Are they ever going to provide pic's? Most times we dont know the refs by name.

Stanley has been solid this year at every event we have attended.

Keith,
Can you provide a list of D2 officials that are wanting to ref at state? Most of us know the quality ones but, some get overlooked. IMOP, D2 has quality officials that don't have a chip on their shoulder, as do others from D3 and D1. Any official willing to discuss a call with a coach, without throwing his weight around, is priceless.

I compiled a list of ALL officials in D2 that had met the criteria for the qualifying series. I created a ballot that can be reviewed at the seeding meeting and have given Richard Salyer the ballot and all of the pictures that were submitted to me. One thing to keep in mind, if you do not remember the official from any tournaments, this could be a good thing; we are not there to be noticed.

I worked with Bill Little, Bill is the lead official for a lot of tournaments in D2. I am identifying officials that worked tournaments that did not register this year; I will be contacting them to remind them of the registration next year.

In other districts you might contact your district director or lead officials in your area to create a ballot.

Hey spexy, was your post a direct stab at D4? Just wondering wasn't sure if it was that or you just haven't been out to D4 to see their officials. Just asking.

Jule,
From the looks of Spexy's post it looks as if he is talking about D1 and D3, he doesnt mention D4.

No stab, haven't been out west this year.

Kinda thought that might be it. Just had to check cause I was ready to defend the D4 officials if I had to. Glad I didnt have to.

I'll bite, what would you have said to defend them? With you saying your glad you didn't have to makes me curious.

Oh this should be fun...

Whatever I needed to. If you want to play we can. Poor poor D4 you guys is always picking on us. Lol
