WSF Referees’ Review
... June 2007 |
Since the last edition of the WSF
Referees’ Review two major developments have taken place in the
world of international refereeing. The first of these is the
re-introduction of the 3-Referee System. While the system
has been used only in a handful of tournaments – and thus it is
still too early to conclude that this is the final answer to all
of squash’s officiating problems – it does seem to be the way
forward at this time, as is noted in the articles included in
this newsletter.
The second major development has been the approval by the WSF of
a comprehensive programme of training and assessment for
referees at all levels. The Working Group that developed
this programme began its work in January 2005, so the process
has taken almost two and a half years. The programme sets
explicit standards for the achievement of the various levels of
referee certification, and outlines in considerable detail how
those standards are to be assessed in each individual case.

WSF Referees’ Review
... Dec 2006 |
Since the last issue of the Referees’ Review WSF Referees have
been busy, as the table of
assignments later in this Newsletter reveals.
New Zealand, Hong Kong, Belfast, Cairo, Cape Town, Sheffield,
Karachi, etc. We are fortunate that some of the WSF Referees who
were assigned to those venues have been willing to enlighten us
about their experiences.
It is clearly not true that WSF Referees can only count to
eleven (if that); some of them can write as well! My thanks go
to all those
contributors who have made this edition of the Referees’ Review
so ample and so interesting!
