Presidents Update
January 2022!!
Here is an update on ECBOA happenings and events:
- Happy New Year! Wishing everyone a happy, safe, prosperous, and healthy 2022.
- January has a full slate of games as teams get into District play. In order to reduce turn backs, Mark has asked that everyone remember to block your closed dates in Arbiter.
- With the School District opting to go back to requiring masks, please follow the schools Covid protocols including masks on campus. Further, officials may come to the game dressed in their uniform, and wear a mask during the game (not a requirement) if they so choose.
- The membership has voted to approve the Regional Crews Lists, which are posted on the home page of our website (ECBOA.org).
- Remaining Arbiter pay dates for School District games are scheduled for January 7th and 21st, and February 4th, 11th, and 8th. Please advise Mark, Yetta, and myself of any payment issues.
- As a reminder, for those working middle school games, officials will be required to wear a non-logo black and while stripped referee shirt (no-FHSAA logo permitted). All other uniform requirements remain unchanged.
- Yetta is looking for volunteers to officiate a Regional Special Olympics tournament to be held on January 22nd. This is the first time that Palm Beach County has hosted a Regional tournament. Please contact Yetta directly if you can officiate these games.
- Nominations open on the 17th and close on the 28th for ECBOA Board and officer positions. Those that are open include Vice President, Treasurer, and three At-Large Board positions. Nominations should be sent to Jonathan Pierre at jonathan1.pierre@gmail.com beginning on the 17th.
Thanks, and here’s to a great 2022!
Thanks,
Joe Erwin
President
