Our chapter has "position meetings" every week at our weekly meeting. We meet from 7 to 8 on Monday nights followed by a general assembly where position representatives bring up key points we want to share that was discussed in the position meetings. It works great for younger officials because it's usually senior officials who share their experience....kind of like how we share philosophy, mechanics, rules on this discussion board.

Someone creates a booklet at the beginning of the year that is distributed to everyone. It pretty much has "chapters" which are weekly discussions on a particular topic. We follow that with sample test questions. For example week 1 may be "kicking game" and the chapter may have some rules spelled out and perhaps a discussion of mechanics. That's followed by 10-15 questions that we discuss in our position meetings as a group. Once we get into general assembly the position representative shares anything he wishes with the group to ensure we're all on the same page. It's a pretty good program and works real well.

One other thing we do is not all weeks we're in position meetings, but rather crew meetings (5 crews to a clasroom) where the crews share experiences of the past weekend's games and how we dealt with them.

Hope this helps.
