Thanks
Our local association meets weekly starting four weeks before the season begins.

Memebership are required to attend 80 percent of the meetings. New members are also required to attend at least one of several on-court training opportunities that we set up with the local schools for evaluations etc.,

We usually meet together for 15 -20 minutes, then we divide our veteran guys and the new guys (who will mostly work jhigh and freshman games) because they need more of the basic rules while the veterans will discuss more of the interpretation type rules etc., Entire meeting last about an hour.

Thanks
David
