You might want to ask your guy what are the disadvantages to becoming certified in your first year. There at at least 2 benefits that come to mind.
a. As part of the process, you would be affiliated with a local officials association. That association should help you to meet officials that can offer you assistance with training and assignments.
b. As part of the process, you would take a qualifying exam. A broad focused study of the rules in preparation for the exam will do wonders for your confidence and readiness to officiate.
The group leader for the officiating association in Artesia is Dan Lewis. He can be reached at [email protected] . If this contact info is not current, Dan or the folks from the state NMOA should be able to help you out.
Unfortunately, the officiating camps that I am aware of in New Mexico have passed. |
Already in contact with Dan. He has already been a great help. Thanks for the other info!
