SAGOA Training

Well a good start to the upcoming season 2007/08. Another well prepared training session that kept people thinking about the role we play in officiating American Football, NCAA. Thanks to Simon and Gordon for taking the reigns to add any further detail to an already jam packed curriculum.
It was great to see new faces and of course the old faces are welcome back at any time.
Reminder to register but if you can't do this we will fix it up at the next SAGOA meeting to be held October 14th, same venue, 10am. This will be about mechanics and rules and have an onfield component rather than just theory. So bring along appropriate footwear for the day.
The web site is getting updated with the training info and as such any information we didn't cover on the day is in the presentation. Where I have used other PowerPoint presentations from elsewhere I have left in tact the presentation as recognition of other peoples work. If there is anything incorrect in any of the work presented please email me so that I can rectify any errors. Please ensure you have a full and correct uniform before week 1, 20th October. Remember we have a couple of new officials so if you have spare bean bags, caps or tops please bring them along.
Due to other commitments in early October I won't be adding to the blog site until the week before the season begins. Good luck to all.
