For all other CPLOA official our rules interpretation and mechanics meeting start 01/29/2004 and run thru 03/2004. Currently our chapter has approximately 65 lax officials.
CPLOA also conducts an on-field clinic prior to start of season as well. HS varsity and college games serve as the clinician tool. Veteran officials pair with new lax officials to explain call, point out proper mechanics and answer questions posed by newbies. Great teaching tool.
