As announced in March, the WFTDA has created a separate branch of its certification program for roller derby officials that focuses on non-skating officials. The NSO Certification Committee is now releasing the evaluation forms and other tools that non-skating officials need to apply for certification, as well as detailed criteria for evaluation.
The process is modeled on the well-established one used for Referee Certification, but with appropriate adjustments to reflect the different nature of non-skating positions. The NSO Certification Committee has transferred the certifications of non-skating officials who were already certified under the prior system and is now accepting applications and other evaluation materials.
More information can be found on the Officiating page, and application and evaluation documents are available on the NSO Certification page.
Real. Strong. Athletic. Revolutionary.
