| Dear fellow
officials,
A lot has been learned from last year’s
mentor-mentee program. With our ability to get
an early start, we, the Mentoring Committee
are excited about this year’s program.
The success of the program falls upon a few
key components happening as follows:
1. Identifying who our mentors will be this
coming season by May 31st.
2. Identifying who our mentees will be by July
7th.
3. Matching of mentors and mentees by July 15th.
4. Allowing mentors to work with their regional
secretary to schedule 2 games with their mentee
no later than July 25th.
As an official we all can name at least one
person who had an impact on us in becoming the
official we are today. As a member of our chapter
each of us have the opportunity to give back
by influencing a new official in a positive
way as a mentor.
It has been proven new officials will more likely
become a stronger seasoned official through
the years as a result of someone taking an interest
in their success. Your role as a mentor will
have a long term impact in the retention of
officials in the years to come.
We need your assistance to the success of this
year’s program. Please complete the Mentor
sign-up sheet either at one of our meetings
in April and May or on the website prior to
May 28th.
Thank you for your commitment in serving as
a mentor.
Sincerely,
The Mentoring Committee
