I would like to see the state association (CIAC) make attendance mandatory, even if it's only for one team representative.



And it's the twenty-first century. So it doesn't have to be in person. It could be a Zoom (or whatever) presentation.

My state, preseason rules clinic is mandatory for schools and officials. We all receive the same presentation in the same format. When these things were done in person, coaches and officials attended the exact same clinics. If the state wants special attention on a subject, coaches and officials all receive the same information.

A preseason rules clinic by the state is not the same as association training where the assigner or supervisor tells his officials his philosophy and how he wants certain things handled.
