You must view the Rules Clinic during the "Window".

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.

High Speed internet access a necessity.
For 2008-2009 Winter Soccer, the On-line Exam "Window" is October 24th thru November 4th.
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 $79 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.
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!
Jim Ulrich has made up a PDF demo of his experience with Pride-Rock.
To get in the game scheduling cycle, you must also register with TheArbiter.net
Fred has to put your name into the Arbiter system.
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.
Also, make sure you fill out our MCOA Ref Info Form with any conflicts
or special needs, so Fred knows how to schedule your games.
