Having problems with message search?
FSRA has many more regattas listed this year than year's past. Are you planning a spring regatta (including dual/tri-meets)? Are you planning on using the services of a USRowing referee? Have you communicated with a USRowing official to confirm referee coverage for your event? You need to ask for referees; they don't show up without prior arrangements.
If you want referee coverage and have not confirmed this with a USRowing Official, it is highly recommended you contact one of the following ASAP:
North Florida: Barbara L. Sanchez-Salazar - barbara@...
Central Florida: Marty Wiener - rowingref@...
South Florida: Jorge Salas - salascrew2000@...
They will help you get a chief referee assigned to your event. The chief referee can help you plan a safe and successful event, so don't delay.
Also, if any of the teams have parents or others who want to be licensed as referees, the SE Region is having a clinic/retreat at the Hampton Inn on Amelia Island Jan 28-29 and it would be a wonderful way to get started on that process. The SE Region needs more officials. If you know someone who wants to get involved, have them contact Dick Alcock, the Referee-Clinician for the US Rowing SE Region - dalcock1@...
Thanks,
Brice A. Crossley
