Hockey Cliînic Offe rs Lessons For Referees If -ail hockey fans were content ,ta remain armchair referees, the game might comé ta a sudden close. Except for a brave group willing ta face frantic fans at each garne, hockey would probably decay into a state of pure anarchy. 1 A group with this patential comprised the f irýft class of the National Referees Certifica- tion Program in Bowmanville. The i 29 who showed up for a__e opening lecture and prac- tice session of the course ranged ,in age frm 12 ta 45. But 'each man had the common goal of becamîng one of the courageous few who dare'ta referee the sport. Athough that may sound exaggerated, it probably bas become a fact of life for a large pèeentage of those who go on ta train as professional refereesý. Mr. Ivan Locke, one of the two men who taught the class in Bowmanville last Wednes- day, is in bis twentieth year of teaching the referees course. One of the most'important characteristics for a referee ta have is a sense of humor. Mr. Locke said. After that, quali- ties sûch as desire and hustle help ta make a referee an even betterjudge of the game. "There's no such thing as a bad referee,' he maintains. "Some are just better than others. " One of the first instructors hired ta teach the course, over the past 20 years he has gained an extensive knowledge of the ruies of the game. The course was made national about three years ago and now allows anyone who passes thraugh the six levels ta referee a game in any province of Canada. Offered under the Canadian Amateur Hockey Association, one of the main aims of the pragram is ta pravide stand- ard methods and techniques for referees ta use. Before the National Refer- ees Certification Program (NRCP) was formed the rules of the game were often varied even within the same pro- vince, Mr. Locke pointed out. Since gaing national, how- ever, the NRCP lias trîed ta regulate the rules uniformly across the country. In addition, the program offers an apportunity far training ta those interested as well as supplying the variaus leagues with a number af qualified officiais. 1After a session running framn three ta five hours, ail 29 wha registered in the course pas- sed the first level quaiifying them ta referee in bouse league hockey. For those who ga on, level two is an eight hour session which includes a national evaluatian test with a 70 per cent minimum as the passing mark. It opens the doar to competitive hockey for an official. The course becomes tougher at each level. The.,passing mark for the test given in the third stage of the programa is 80 per cent. Each stage after that is twa days long and carnies a pre-requisite of successfui comoletion of the preceding level.' With the right training and expenience, Mr. Locke is hopeful that sometime in the near future officiais will even receive same respect from the fans in the stands. a Don Martin point shot, witb Clarke Teams Win COSSA Voile ybcll Championships an assist ta Vanseggelen.
