The world's best derby requires the world's best referees, and our junior officials work hard to become and remain capable of officiating at the highest levels of competition. This practice is for active or aspiring junior officials (ages 12-17) who want to contribute to helping RCR grow.
In general, officials practices feature a combination of topics and activities for both skating and non-skating officials, including:
- Skating skills, specific to derby officials.
- JRDA rules familiarization and review.
- Scenario-based rules discussions and exercises.
- Skating endurance and conditioning.
- Penalty box timing/management, jam timing, scorekeeping, and stats recording.
* Note: JRDA insurance is mandatory for all junior skating officials (12-17).
