2015 CFOA Newsletters #5 and #6
When it rains it pours! So, we’re pouring two newsletters on you this week. Newsletter #5 talks about errors in judgement, authorized conferences, penalties and enforcements, penalty flag trivia, “Five Referees”, and the 2015 CFOA Honoree.

This week’s CFOA newsletter contains articles on confidence and preparation, types of fouls, heat/humidity, officiating pride, penalty enforcement, and moving/spotting the ball. Click here for the newsletter.
2015 CFOA Newsletter #3
Today starts the football season! (Actually, there were some games yesterday, but my first game is today!) Our education continues during the season, so here’s another CFOA newsletter. This week’s edition deals with the passing game, distance vs. angles, equipment, sideline management and consistency, and kickers becoming runners.
2015 CFOA Newsletter #2
This issue deals with correcting a down, force, “Ten Commandments of Officiating”, “Why We Officiate”, pace of play, free-blocking zone, and pre-snap routine.
Position Guides
I have added position guides to the website. These are materials to supplement, not replace, our mechanics book. It’s a great idea to print them out and study them before your games and bring to your pregames. They can be found on our mechanics page.
State Instructional Chairman’s Message
Bobby Kennedy, the IC of the CFOA, will be sending out a biweekly CFOA Newsletter. This is a great tool to keep us updated with current issues that come up during the season. This week’s issue deals with risk minimization, use of the whistle, rule changes, working with head coaches, and “the seven c’s of officiating”.
