Missouri Referee Development Program will start the 2022 registration/re-registration cycle on July 1, 2021. Fees for 2022 will be increased by $10 across the board due to new higher costs associated with background checks. For 2022, re-registrations will still start online and will have an in-person recert clinic associated with each clinic to conclude the process. Provided all other requirements (i.e. online payment, test and SafeSport) have been met then badges and Velcro will be handed out at the end of each clinic. Recerts will be scheduled by each district based on demand. Mosty are usually later in the fall but this year due to the impact of Covid-19 they may start sooner in districts that need the additional numbers that some re-registrations add when a referee hasn't otherwise been re-registered in 2021.
It is important that all know when updating your safeSport, for a certificate to be acceptable for registration or re-registration, it will need to either say SafeSport Trained or be one of the three refresher courses.
