Hello everyone (Delegates and Official Division Reps please share ASAP),

We need more officials!  As mentioned before, we can’t have a meet without officials. So, we need YOU!

To run a successful meet, we need 7 officials (1 Meet Ref, 1 Deck Ref, 1 Starter, and 4 Strokes and Turns). However, to give our officials a break (especially our Deck Ref and Starter), it is ideal to have 11 officials (1 meet ref, 2 deck refs, 2 starters, and 6 strokes and turns).

At this point we have one team that has no certified officials and other teams that don't have enough officials to run a meet. This is a link to see the current list of officials by team: 2025 Certified Officials

We have a training session on May 14th and rumor has it homemade sopapillas will be served. (Sign up here)

We also have Strokes & Turns, Starter, and Deck Ref Training on May 17th...rumor has it Carne Adovada (Pork marinated in red chile) with Tortillas will be served.(Sign up here) Please sign up for a session today.
