[Robert-Robert34]

This might be something of interest to all users on this site who are CAMS officials  :-)

According to an article in this months edition of CAMS magazine the National Officiating Program Review (NOPR)has unveiled new grades & categories to replace the current ones

Trainee-Trainee
Grade 4-General Official
New -Club Chief
Grade 3-Bronze
Grade 2-Silver
Grade 1-Gold

In other words if you have a E4 licence you'll no longer be classed as a Grade 4 Official as this has been updated so E4 officials are classified as a General Official

All E3 licence holders will be classed as Bronze Officials and are capable of officiating as chiefs up to and including state level events as well as

*Assuming a team leader role and taking responsibility for other officials

* Officiating without supervision and ;

* Acting as a General Official at any level event

Im in the process of going about upgrading my General Officials licence to a Bronze Officials licence all i gotta do is fill out a Fire & Rescue RPL/CE form get a written reference from a SEAC senior official about my fire & rescue duties as well as fill out an upgrade licence form before sending it away

What is everyone else's thoughts in on it
