Spring Seminar Registration Opening Pushed Back to 7:00pm on March 9

The Atlantic District Officiating Program is pushing back the opening of registration for the 2008-2009 Spring Seminars to 7:00pm Eastern Time on Monday, March 9.

This change is being made in order to give officiating candidates who cannot register for a seminar at their school or workplace a better opportunity to get a seat for the seminar of their choice.

Two New Officiating Seminars Added for the 2008-2009 Season

Plans for our added USA Hockey Officiating Seminars are now set. Here are the details:

Eligibility

  • Brand new entry-level officials (Level 1).
  • Officials who were previously registered but have not yet attended a Seminar for the 2008-09 season.

Officiating Levels

Level 1 and Level 2 only.

Officials who have already attended a Level 1 Seminar for the 2008-09 season are NOT eligible to attend this seminar and move to Level 2.

Dates, Times, Locations

  • Saturday - March 21st – North - Lehigh University/Steel Ice Center – Bethlehem, PA - 9 am to 5:00 pm.
  • Sunday - March 29th - South - Ice Works - Aston, PA - 9 am to 5 pm.
All participants must register with USA Hockey and with the Atlantic District as an Official before they can register for the seminar (even if you are already registered as a Player or Coach). Go to http://www.usahockeyregistration.com/ , click on Officials and follow the prompts.

Registration will open online on the AAHArefs Seminar Schedule Page on Monday, March 9th and will be on a first-come-first-served basis.

Officials may register for only ONE of these Seminars. Duplicate registrations will result in the name being removed from both lists.

Officials MUST make the commitment to participate for the entire day.

Notes

Everyone must bring the following:
  • Hockey skates (NOT goalie skates or figure skates)
  • Hockey helmet
  • Suitable clothing to go on the ice (do not need a referee uniform)
  • Pad and pen to take notes
Lunch is on your own.
