Officials

A NOTE from our head official

Hello Barracudas,

For the next 3 weeks, on Wednesdays (5/15, 5/22, 5/29), Jason August (the Barracudas Head Official) will be attending the 5:00pm and 6:00pm practices to set up the starting equipment and give the kids an opportunity to practice starts. This is also an opportunity for anybody that has questions about officiating or thinks they may be interested in officiating this year or in the future to meet Jason and learn more about it. If you are interested, stop by any of these practices, find a board member (in the red "board member" shirts), and let them know you are "there to talk to Jason about officiating." They will help point you in the right direction on the deck.

Thanks,

Jason August

If you are interested in becoming an official, please reach out to the LCST Barracuda Head Official Jason August at jasonaug@gmail.com.

We look forward to seeing you on deck!!

CCSL has two levels of certification, Stroke/Turn and Starter/Referee, and therefore there are 2 different clinics offered.

Anyone is welcome to become a Stroke and Turn Official, but to become a Starter or Referee you must have been a CCSL official for 2 or more consecutive years.

All officials are required to attend training appropriate to the role they wish to certify in for the 2024 season.

Returning officials will have the option to attend either in-person or web-based clinic. If you have never officiated before, then you must attend the in-person new official clinic for stroke and turn judges. If you have never officiated as a starter or referee, then you must attend the in-person new official clinic for starters and deck referees.

Certifying as a starter and deck referee also certifies you to be a stroke and turn judge, there is no requirement to attend both clinics.

If you have any questions, please reach out to the email above.
