Eligibility

Brand new entry-level officials. Also for officials who were previously registered but have not yet attended a Seminar for the 2007-08 season.

Officiating Levels

1 and 2 only.

Officials who have already attended a Level 1 Seminar for the 2007-08 season are not eligible to attend this seminar and move to Level 2.

Dates, times, locations:

• Saturday - March 29th - Bridgewater Sports Arena - Bridgewater, NJ - 8 am to 4 pm.
• Sunday - March 30th - Ice Works Skating ComplexIce Works Skating Complex - Aston, PA - 9 am to 5 pm.

Registration will open online at AAHArefs.org on March 4th 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)
• Check (NO cash) for $25 payable to "AAHA" to cover the Atlantic District Referee Registration Fee
• Pad and pen to take notes

Lunch is on your own

All officials must register separately with the USA Hockey Officiating Program (even if you are already registered as a player and/or coach) - details to be provided at the Seminar. It is probably not a good idea to register with USAH until you are certain that you are attending a Seminar.

These Seminars are for the 2007-08 season only - your registration will expire after Nov. 30, 2008. Just like all other officials in the country, you will then have to re-register and attend a new Seminar for the 2008-09 season. Those Seminars usually run from mid-August to early October in our District.

In some areas, it is sometimes difficult to obtain game assignments during the summer since there are often fewer entry-level games. However, you would also be eligible to obtain game assignments once league play begins again around Labor Day.

Level 4 Seminar and National Tournaments

The Level 4 Seminar will be held on Sunday, August 26th. It is important to note that the Atlantic District will be hosting National Tournaments at three Women’s levels, four Girls’ levels and four Youth levels this season. Thus, there will be a need for quality Level 4 officials in our District this year. You can be considered as a Linesman for Nationals if you are Level 3. However, if you want to be considered as a Referee at any of these National Tournaments you must be a Level 4 official.

District Officiating Seminar (DOS)

This year we are hosting a District Officiating Seminar. The DOS will be held Aug. 10 – 12 at the Lawrenceville School in Lawrenceville, NJ. USA Hockey is sending invitations with details to all completely-registered Level 3 and 4 officials in the Atlantic District. This program is a great way to improve your skills with on-ice and classroom instruction from national-level personnel and upper-level district personnel. If you are applying for Level 4, you will also need to attend the Level 4 Seminar. The DOS will serve as your 2007-08 USA Hockey Seminar if you are applying for Level 3.

A DOS is only held in each District every 3 or 4 years, so if you are interested do not hesitate to send in your application quickly. Acceptance is on a first-come-first served basis.

The duties of the District Officiating Evaluation Liaisons will be:

• To be the local contact for the Evaluation Program.
• To coordinate game evaluation requests with the on-ice officials.
• To help recruit local senior-level officials to become members of the District Evaluation Program.
• Report to the District Evaluation Coordinator and the District Referee-in-Chief.

The District Officiating Evaluation Liaisons and their areas of responsibility are as follows:

• Evaluation Liaison- North will be responsible for New Jersey: Dave Brown has accepted this position.
• Evaluation Liaison- South will be responsible for Pennsylvania and Delaware: Bill Maurer has accepted this position.

We want to thank Dave and Bill for volunteering for this position. Please give them your support during the coming season.

At the start of this season, I announced that Shane Hanlon had stepped down as the District Seminar Coordinator pending a work-related move out of the District. At that time, I appointed Carl Barling as the new District Seminar Coordinator and Marty Maglio to serve as the Assistant District Seminar Coordinator.

It is amazing what has happened in the ensuing months! The work-related move out of the District will now not happen for Shane. At the same time, Carl received an offer for a new job that was too good to pass up. As a result, his time is more restricted now because he has to travel for business.

As a result of these “real-life” changes, I am announcing the following realignment in the structure of our District Seminar Staff:

• Shane Hanlon will return to his original position as District Seminar Coordinator
• Carl Barling will serve as the Seminar Liaison for the northern part of our District
• Marty Maglio with serve as the Seminar Liaison for the southern part of our District

• Saturday, March 24, 2007 at Ice Works Skating Complex in Aston, PA, 9:00 AM – 5:00 PM
• Sunday, March 25, 2007 at Bridgewater Sports Arena in Bridgewater, NJ, 7:45 AM – 4:30 PM

Registration for these seminars will be open on this site starting on March 1. Visit the Seminar Schedule page on AAHArefs for more information. Registration will be on a first-come first-served basis. Space is limited and these seminars often fill up quickly.

NOTE: These seminars are part of the 2006-07 season. This registration will expire on November 30, 2007. All officials will have to attend another seminar starting in August 2007 to register for the 2007-08 season.

Any questions should be addressed to: Tony Mariconda, Atlantic District Referee-in-Chief, via email at tonyrefx3 [at] aol.com.
