SDCFOA Information Update - Steve Coover - July 7, 2024
First Meeting This Wednesday 7/10 – The SDCFOA kicks off the 2024 season this Wednesday July 10th at 7:00pm at Mira Mesa High School (10510 Marauder Way, SD 92126). A copy of the entire meeting schedule for 2024 is attached. Instructional Packets will be available starting at 5:30 pm in front of the Mira Mesa HS Theater. We will begin our general meeting as a whole Association inside the Theater at 7:00pm. After the whole-Association General Meeting, we will break into our instructional classrooms for a short time. Attendance will be taken in the classrooms so you must go to your classrooms.
Room Assignments – A copy of the Room Assignments is attached so you can see where you are assigned. Please note the classroom number. The classrooms are a short walk from the Theater. 1st-year, 2nd-year and Transfer officials will not see your name on the room assignments. After the General meeting in the Theater,all 1st-year officials will meet in Room 714. All 2nd-year and Transfer officials will meet in Room 713.
Recruiting – We currently have 40 first-year officials. We also have 37 second-year and transfer officials. Our recruiting committee has done a great job this year but we could use more! This is a perfect time to reach out to your relative, work-associate, or friend to invite them to join. We are especially interested in more women in our Association so consider them as you think about inviting someone to join the SDCFOA. Girls Flag Football is a great way to ease into officiating youth and high school football!
Crew Chief & Instructors Meeting – We will have a meeting starting at 6:00pm in the Theater. All Developmental Crew Chiefs plus NCAA officials should attend as well. See you in the Theater at 6:00.
2023 Rules Books, Case Books, and Mechanics Manual – The Association chose to not purchase 2024 Rule Books and Case Books. There is only one new rule covering home jerseys so make sure you have your 2023 books with you. First year and transfer officials will be provided 2024 rule books and case books, plus the 2023-24 Mechanics Manual. Everyone else already has their 2023-24 Mechanics Manual. We will be printing a new edition in 2025.
The Weekly Bull – Each week we will send out a Weekly Bulletin which provides important information for our Association. This week’s Bull is attached!
