The season is almost here.
The web sites have listed several meets. tf-registrations.com, ncusatf.org , and usatf.org.

The following is a message from the National Office. Read it carefully to submit your application.

We apologize for an unavoidable and uncontrollable delay that prevented the application from being posted in mid-August as had been previously promised.
The issue has been resolved and the application is now available for all National and Master level officials at
https://www.usatf.org/groups/officials/2012-championships-application/application.asp.
The deadline for submitting your application is October 15th at 11:59PM Pacific time.

Please read over all of the instructions carefully before submitting your application.
Please also be aware that you are not able to save your application and submit it later.
We suggest that you look over all the information being asked for as you may wish to assemble things like your meet resume in advance
and then fill out the application when you have all of that information ready.
Also, please help spread the word about the application to other National and Master level officials that you know may not get the newsletter.
Once you have submitted your application, you will be shown a confirmation page where you can print out a copy for your records.

Also remember that since 2012 is an Olympic Trials year, the Junior Outdoor meet is conducted separately.
If this is your first time applying for one of these for meets, the Junior Championship meet is something we encourage you to apply for.
In addition we encourage all officials to apply for all the meets you are able to work.
Remember that if you just apply for one meet then that is the only meet for which the selection committee can consider you
thus greatly decreasing your overall chances of being selected for a meet.
If you are able to apply for more than one please do so.
When applying for more than one meet simply check the appropriate boxes and fill in your event preferences.
You do NOT need to submit multiple applications for any reason.
Lastly, remember that the application is only available online this year and you will not be receiving one in the mail.
Please help spread the word about the application to any National or Master level officials you know who may not get the newsletter or frequent the website.
