Important notices:

·   NEXT MEETING

The next meeting will be held on Sunday July 27, 2008 at the Remai Centre, starting at 7.30 p.m. (Located behind the Travelodge).

Monthly meetings are held on the last Sunday of each month at the Remai Centre starting at 7.30 pm, unless affected by long weekends, in which case they are usually held a week earlier.

Please note that for referees to be in good standing with the SDSRA they must attend at least four meetings throughout the year. Referees in good standing will be given preference for assignments.

Cheques for previous month games will be paid out following the meeting.

BULLETIN BOARD

Game sheets must be handed in at the Sasktel Sports Centre, faxed, or emailed to the office. You can no longer leave then at the Henk Ruys building.

 

Please note that Availability Forms are required to be in to the Assignor by 10th of the month prior.

• REMINDERS

 All SDSA indoor games now adopt the new Swipe Card system. Players with no Swipe Card do NOT   play. Cards that do not swipe must be recorded on the sheet at the timekeepers bench and the card handed in to the Admission Office. Please note Swipe Cards will NOT be adopted for the outdoor season.

All referees should now have received their Saskatchewan badge from SSA. Please ensure that badges are worn at all times when officiating.

All referees must enforce the NO jewelry law. All visible jewelry MUST be removed ( no taping is allowed), along with wrist bands, bandana's, hair clips, necklaces etc. The only exceptions are smooth wedding bands, and Medic Alert bracelets with the bracelet part taped. Non compliance means that player does NOT play. Please note this applies to Referees as well.

Availability sheets for each month are due by the 10th of the previous month at the latest. Be sure to fill out the Availability Forms early to be given first priority for the games assigned.

It is mandatory for ALL referees who wish to officiate in 2008, either indoors (2008-2009) or outdoors, to register or re-register with the SDSRA in Saskatoon AND the SSA in Regina.

The onus is on the referee to register with the SSA. Current membership expires April 15, 2008.

Please note that SDSRA Fees are $25.00 for Senior Referees (18 and over) and $15.00 for Youth Referees (under 18).
