Training is offered both from the Minnesota State High School League and our association.
A rules meeting must be attended before each season. The purpose of the meeting is to review the rules, provide clarification and answer any questions. Additional information will be emailed about the meeting at the beginning of each season.
There are a handful of other items to complete before you can become a judge. These items are all outlined on the Artiber's website, including completing an online test with a score of at least 80%, viewing the annual rules interpretation meeting and other administrative items. All of these items are necessary steps to help you have a successful judging season.
Additional training opportunities also include:
Concussion training: Needs to be completed when you first register and once every three years thereafter.
A gymnastics training clinic must be attended within your first three years and once every three years thereafter.
MGGOA has a mentor program for new judges. We will pair you with a veteran official to ensure you are getting the necessary training you need.
