A group of us are meeting this Friday with a local college to discuss the implementation of a Referee Development Program. Does anyone have any information on such a program that we can look at to help in formulating our proposal? Any info would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

take a look at http://www.cboa.org. This is my association (northern VA) and we have some information (can't remember exactly what) regarding referee development. We run our own in-house 10 or 12 week course (1 night a week) where we cover the rules/mechanics and the "applicants" also get court time in rec games. Hope this helps.

Thanks!!! Your association has a great web site. I found the information under the button entitled "Rating Info." I really appreciate it. It sounds like you guys have a very organized and well run association.
