Greetings from SC

[abarksdale]

Where in SC are you from Lawman? I'm in Greenville.

First of all, good to have you around. As far as going to camp. I feel that camp is sometimes overwhelming to brand new officials. Personally I would try to find a summer league to work, hopefully with some veterans, and then go to camp. In my opinion you'll get more out of it that way.

He could always go across the border and attend one of Georgia's high school certification camps. They are geared for HS officials.

I looked at some of the GA camps. Would that be a good place to start this summer ? What are some of the camps you suggest for a brand new official ? Im not certified anywhere yet are there any camps that will fit my needs best in GA ?

Would one of the basic camps on here suit what I am looking for to get started with ?

Yes, those are the ones. Some of those are held in conjunction with college camps as you may get lucky and get some extra instruction.

I asked this same question to the coordinator for the GA Tech camp and he said it was geared to whatever level of people were there. Rookies are welcome.

It's this coming weekend, so if you choose to go to this one, I'd suggest you get in touch with the coordinator right away and see if there are openings.

I am looking at the one at Mercer Univ. on the second weekend in June. I am going to call Monday to check availability and attempt to register.
