A reminder that the MIAA site for background checks and enrollment opens July 1.  If you had the background check last year you are not required to pay for it again this year.  HOWEVER, you must still enroll and pay your $10 /sport MIAA enrollment.  Those first year officials who passed last year and plan to do high school should make sure they do both the background check and MIAA enrollment as soon as possible (after July 1) to ensure they are on the cleared list for the assignors.  Your youth league may also require a background check in this second year of the program so please check with your assignors to make sure you have the proper clearances.  The site to check your background check status and MIAA enrollment will be available July 1 and is at http://miaa.arbitersports.com/front/110185/Site

Please also remember that you must go through the concussion training each year and that is available on the MIAA website as well at  http://miaa.net .  You must do this each year but only once a year regardless of the number of sports you do throughout the year.  Keep your annual certificate in your bag as proof of doing the training.
