This season’s Men’s Rules and Refereeing course will take place in Glasgow on Sunday 23rd February
This course is designed to get people to the Level 1 qualification required by BUCS, but is also suitable for existing officials refreshing their qualification & knowledge, or advancing to Level 2. It will also be of use to players new to the sport who wish to understand the rules of the game, even if they never referee.
If you are looking to get the minimum two referees in your club required by BUCS regulation LAC 4.1 I recommend you send four people to the course. There is a multiple choice exam at the end and not everyone passes it first time! Plus the more people you have qualified, the easier it will be to share the duties.
Venue
Glasgow University – Garscube Campus – West of Scotland Science Park, Maryhill Rd, Glasgow G20 0SP
https://www.gla.ac.uk/explore/maps/garscubecampus/
The course will run between 10:15 and 17:00.
Cost is £25, or £20 for Lacrosse Scotland members
