New Officials' Recruitment/Community Outreach Initiative

[Camron Rust]

I think you have to be cautious of the groups you advertise to depending on what you are looking for.

Do you want to get younger, physically fit officials who will have potentially long and successful careers ahead of them or do you want a lot of bodies that need some money but have a much lower likelihood of being a successful official.

Recruit in college intramural programs, state championship venues, etc.

At the fair, you might get more of a group that sees it as a way to make a buck than you'd like. You have to be ready to turn people away that just don't have what it takes if you recruit in such a venue....unless you just need bodies and you're not getting them.
