Bridge Class Information and Expectations:
- Only grade 9 referees (referees with blue badges) who are at least 14 years old, who have officiated at least one season (spring/fall) can attend these clinics to upgrade to a grade 8 level referee for 2008.  Grade 9 referees can take a bridge class in place of attending a recertification clinic to officiate in 2008.
- Class size is limited and fills quickly, register early. WAITING LISTS FOR SEATS ARENʼT MAINTAINED.
- Course participants must attend both sessions at same site, NO EXCEPTIONS.  In the event of uncontrollable scheduling issues, requests to complete courses at another venue will require applicant to attend BOTH sessions.  Requests to switch venues may be denied due to seating capacity.  Please DO NOT apply for a class if you are unable to attend both sessions in their entirety.  Indoor games, tournaments, practice or other events arenʼt valid reasons for late arrival or missing all or a portion of class.
- All students are expected to arrive in advance of the posted clinic start times.  There is no admittance to the class 15 minutes after the posted start time.
- Student is expected to take notes and actively participate in class. 
- Electronic devices such as Game Boys, iPods or MP3 players arenʼt permitted in clinic.
- Pagers and cell phones on vibrate are permitted.  Cell phones are only to be used for making calls before, after or during breaks of the clinic.  Text messaging during the clinic is prohibited.
- Students who are demonstrating conduct (i.e.: sleeping, texting, etc) that IS NOT conducive to the bridge class will be asked to leave.  
- Referees are expected to clean up after themselves. 
- A minimum class size of 10 students is required for the class to take place.   
- Referees must successfully pass a 100 question test with a minimum score of 75%

SWITCHING CLASS IS NOT ALLOWED
Once a participant has registered for a course slot, transfers to any other session WILL NOT BE ALLOWED.  The total number of registrants is capped for each session.  Once you register for an open slot, you are locking out others who might wish to register for that course.  In the interest of fairness to all, the Michigan Referee Committee will not register students in any clinic who are already registered in any other session.  PLEASE DO NOT REGISTER FOR ANY CLINIC UNLESS YOU ARE CERTAIN YOU CAN COMMIT TO ATTENDING THAT PARTICULAR SESSION.  Wait lists are not maintained for any clinic.
Finally, please remember that instructors do not have the authority to transfer students to other clinics or portions of other clinics.
