The Southern Wisconsin Officials Association (SWOA) is proud to offer our 11th Annual Basketball Officiating Clinic, to be held on November 7th and 8th in Madison, WI. The clinic will target officials from Level 1 through Master. The SWOA clinic will have two focal points: two person mechanics for beginning officials, and three person mechanics for officials wanting to become more familiar and competent with three person mechanics. All campers will referee three to four games on Saturday ending at 2pm. The clinic will be held in conjunction with a high school boy's team tournament.

WIAA Approved
Officials at levels L1-L3 completing the training will advance one level upon re-licensing, and officials at L4 through Master levels will receive credit for one varsity contest. These credits will be applied to the 2009 – 2010 season for determining tournament eligibility. Attendance on both Friday and Saturday is required to receive WIAA credit.

Instruction
The clinic will include breakout classroom sessions covering various topics. We will also discuss expectations of the WIAA and what they would like to see in return. With the implementation of 3 person mechanics, there is much interest from officials regarding how they are going to get training to prepare for the upcoming season, but years ahead. Therefore, the clinic will consist of a mandatory attendance on Friday night to review the 3 person mechanics video, as well as going over the 3 person manual developed by Referee Magazine.

Registration and Fees
