Referees !!!
To do Public School games you must Register as
a Soccer Official with FHSAA.
Go to i.fhsaa.org,
click on Officials, and get a User ID and Password.
You can pay by Credit Card to Register as a Soccer
Official.
You will then have access to many resources on
the FHSAA Website.
You must view the Rules Clinic
during the "Window".
For 2007-2008 Winter Soccer the "Window" is October
22nd thru November 2nd.
If you miss the window, FHSAA will be happy to
fine you.
So go online to www.fhsaa.org.
Click on the eCLASSROOM icon, then "click
here to view the online rules meeting".
There is a quiz at the end of the video, so you
must watch the whole video.
Then be sure to get a copy of your certificate
at the end of the quiz.
This is your only proof that you took the rules
meeting.
High Speed internet access highly recommended.
To get in the scheduling cycle, you must also register with TheArbiter.net
Your user ID is your Email address. Your password initially will be your last name.
When you get in to the system, you will have to change your password.
Then go ahead and enter your personal information.
Some of you have heard about
the Jessica Lunsford Law that was passed by the Florida legislature.
It affects all individuals that contract to work
at schools, including SPORTS OFFICIALS.
This new law requires a level 2 screening which
includes fingerprinting along with a background check.
NO - the one for FYSA won't count! NO -
your top secret work clearance won't count!
We have to do this one too. It costs $83
and must be paid up front,
but you will be reimbursed $40 thru the MCOA.
This law took effect on SEPT. 1, 2005 and you
MUST be screened to work any school games.
Thanks, Fred
The procedure has changed to get your fingerprints and background check.
It’s no longer at the school board.
Go to http://security.brevard.k12.fl.us,
click on PRIDE-ROCK, select the checkbox, and hit NEXT, and follow the instructions!
The FHSAA is enforcing the
rule of not assigning any refs past the districts playoffs
if you have not attended a field clinic by this
fall. It's your option to attend one or not.
If you decide to do so, go to Officials
FHSAA Website and follow the instructions
on how to register and pay for the field clinic.
