NEW THIS YEAR: DISTRICT-WIDE REFEREE SCHEDULING
In an ongoing attempt to better the referee scheduling process, YLM has decided to go to a district-wide ref scheduling format this year. This means that referees will designate up to two districts in which they want to be scheduled and will register online at www.youthlaxmn.org.
To aid district ref schedulers, all prospective referees will be asked to provide their USL number, contact information, etc. That information will be available only to YLM board members and schedulers.
If you know someone who has completed UMLOA training, please pass this information along to them. If you know someone who is still interested in becoming a certified referee, please direct them to the home page of www.youthlaxmn.org for more information.
Online registration for referees can be found under the "Register Online" tab on the website.
