BRIDGEPORT, Pa. — The 2017 Men’s Varsity Referee Availability form for Mid-Atlantic Water Polo Conference (MAWPC) and Northeast Water Polo Conference (NWPC) games is due by the end of the day on Wednesday, June 7.
Please review the following instructions before completing the availability form:
1) When completing your availability form it is imperative that you include your full last name, first initial and preference number for each event on THAT DATE you select for each weekend. Example, John Smith’s first choice for a particular weekend should be listed as “Smith, J 1” and his second choice as “Smith, J 2” in the space provided after the event. If he is only selecting one event on a weekend it should still be listed as “Smith, J 1” in the space provided after that event.
2) Referees should include their alma mater, as well as listing any family members (coaches or student-athletes) currently competing at a CWPA institution in water polo.
3) If selecting a varsity event, you DO NOT have to make yourself available to officiate at least one club event.
4) Any referee planning to work a CWPA league event must first pass the NCAA Rules Test prior to the start of the season (if not completed prior to the men’s season). The new NCAA test is available and can be found on this web site. When you have successfully completed the test please copy your score and email Ed Reed at: officials@collegiatewaterpolo.org or edswimpolo@charter.net
5) All CWPA officials that wish to be considered for nomination to officiate at the NCAA Championships by the CWPA Technical Committee must be selected to referee one of the two CWPA administered league championships. Selections are based, in no particular order or value, on game evaluations/experience, coaches’ evaluations and recommendations of the CWPA Technical Committee.
